Metazoan species maintain oxygen homeostasis through the activity of hypoxia‐inducible
factors, which are transcriptional activators that regulate the expression of hundreds of
genes to match O2 supply and demand. Here, we review the involvement of hypoxia‐
inducible factors in the molecular physiology and pathophysiology of cellular O2 sensing,
O2 delivery, O2 utilization, and systemic O2 sensing. WIREs Syst Biol Med 2017, 9: e1382.
