Adaptation of Diqing Tibetan pigs to hypoxic and cold environments through extramedullary hematopoiesis and uncoupled thermogenesis in the liver
Abstract Background Tibetan pigs, which have long inhabited the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau at elevations exceeding 3000 m, serve as an ideal model for studying adaptation to extreme high-altitude environments. The multifunctionality of the liver (hematopoiesis, metabolism, detoxification) plays a crucial...
