flag Naked mole-rat genome study reveals adaptations for low-oxygen survival and heart protection.

flag New research reveals that the genome of the naked mole-rat contains specific adaptations that allow it to survive in low-oxygen environments. flag The study, led by Dr. Dunja Aksentijevic, found that the naked mole-rat's unique cardiometabolic profile helps avoid damage to its heart during cardiovascular events. flag These genetic adaptations could serve as a basis for advancing physiological and medical research in humans.
