However, how cells adapt to changes in levels of oxygen has been unknown.<\/p>\n<p>Generally speaking, cells cannot live without oxygen. All the air-breathing organisms on Earth have developed ways to ensure their cells get the amount of oxygen they need. For instance, we could produce more red bold cells to accommodate the scarcity of air in high altitudes. Therefore, human bodies have developed a couple of ways to monitor and respond to changes in oxygen levels. Back to the previous example, when our oxygen is not enough, our body will produce more oxygen-carrying cells to maximize the delivery of oxygen. The production of these oxygen-carrying cells is triggered by the production of erythropoietin( EPO). EPO is the Novel winners explored. In addition to this, they also found a complex &#8212; Hypoxia-Inducible Factor (HIF). When oxygen levels are high, cells contain very little HIF-1\u03b1. However, when oxygen levels are low, the amount of HIF-1\u03b1 increases. Due to an oxygen-related reduction in the effect of ubiquitin, a peptide that normally would bind with and quickly decay HIF-1\u03b1. The discovery of this mechanism is of significance in the field of medicine.<\/p>\n<p>According to Social studio media analysis, the overall volume of Nobel prize in medicine was 1k with 94.2% of post coming from Twitter.
