Study by Randall Johnson's lab uses genetic and physiological analysis to demonstrate the essential role of the transcription factor HIF-2alpha in the sympathetic nervous system control of the ventilatory response to hypoxia

A new study by Randall Johnson published in Cell Metabolism shows that an enzyme called FIH determines how muscles consume oxygen. Without the enzyme, the need for oxygen increases during physical exercise. The finding is of potential significance to elite athletes, who have been found to have higher levels of FIH in their muscles than others.

New research by Randall Johnson about the role of VEGF-A in helping T-cells in low oxygen environments makes the cover of Cancer Cell

New study by Randall Johnson on eLife shows that skin reacts to the changes in oxygen in the air to regulate blood pressure and hearth rate

New research from Randall Johnson's team, published on Nature, reveals how a small molecule turns short-lived ‘killer T-cells’ into long-lived, renewable cells that can last in the body for longer, and could help make cell-based immunotherapy a realistic prospect to treat cancer.
