The transcriptional factor HIF-1α is recognized for its contribution to cardioprotection against acute ischemia/reperfusion injury. Adaptation to chronic hypoxia (CH) is known to stabilize HIF-1α and increase myocardial ischemic tolerance. However, the precise role of HIF-1α in mediating the protective effect remains incompletely understood.
