Although important progress has been made, our Review identifies knowledge gaps that need to be addressed if we are to fully understand the impact of climate change on the developmental plasticity...

Many hypoxia- and hypercapnia-tolerant fossorial mammals respond to hypoxia by decreasing metabolic rate and thermogenesis, and have blunted ventilatory responses to both environmental...

Experiments were performed under basal conditions (media equilibrated with 98.2% O 2 and 1.8% CO 2), hypercapnia (5% CO 2) or hypoxia (5–7% O...

Although there were slight differences among the three knockdown/knockout experiments, the typical response was a greater degree of intracellular acidification during CO 2 exposure and a reduced capacity to restore pHi to baseline levels post-hypercapnia.

However, swimming performance (both U gait and U crit) was impaired under elevated near-future P CO 2 conditions, indicating reduced efficiencies of oxygen turnover...

Based on pharmacological evidence using β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) antagonists, and confirmed by β 1 -AR translational gene knockdown using morpholinos, the reflex tachycardia accompanying hypercapnia was probably mediated by the interaction of catecholamines with cardiac β 1 receptors. Because...

... of the brittlestar Amphiura filiformis during environmental hypercapnia demonstrated that besides hypoxic conditions, increases of environmental P CO 2 are additive to the already high P CO 2 (up to 0.08 kPa) within the burrows.
