Compensatory Mitophagy via NEDD4/HIF-1α/BNIP3 Pathway Restrains EndMT and Renal Allograft Interstitial Fibrosis Induced by TNFα. [PDF]
The role of TNFα in the process of renal allograft interstitial fibrosis is complex and multifaceted. As it can promote renal allograft interstitial fibrosis by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and EndMT, and also mediating compensatory mitophagy through the NEDD4–HIF‐1α–BNIP3 pathway, which clears damaged mitochondria and inhibits EndMT, thereby ...

Hydrostatic pressure activates HIF-1α via β-catenin to promote stemness in breast cancer cells. [PDF]
To mimic the elevated intestinal fluid pressure in breast cancers, we loaded human breast cancer cells (MCF‐7, MDA‐MB‐453, and BT‐474) to 50 mmHg hydrostatic pressure. Hydrostatic pressure exposure upregulated HIF‐1α and induced stemness in MCF‐7 and BT‐474 cells.

Structure-guided design and optimization of small molecules targeting the protein-protein interaction between the von hippel-lindau (VHL) E3 ubiquitin ligase and the hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) alpha subunit with in vitro nanomolar affinities [PDF]
E3 ubiquitin ligases are attractive targets in the ubiquitin-proteasome system, however, the development of small-molecule ligands has been rewarded with limited success.

Objective Hypoxia can promote stem cell proliferation and migration through HIF-1α. Hypoxia can regulate cellular endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Some studies have reported the relationship among hypoxia, HIF-α, and ER stress, however, while little is

Cezanne (OTUD7B) regulates HIF-1α homeostasis in a proteasome-independent manner [PDF]
The transcription factor HIF-1α is essential for cells to rapidly adapt to low oxygen levels (hypoxia). HIF-1α is frequently deregulated in cancer and correlates with poor patient prognosis.

Prevalence of neural tube defect (NTD) has reduced after folic acid intake. However; which mechanisms are effective in NTD are not known exactly. In this study; due to the possible effects on hypoxic pathway and embryonic development, particularly on extracellular matrix components, Hif-1α Pro582Ser and TGF-β3 IVS5+104 A/G SfaN1 polymorphisms were ...

HIF-1α, a novel piece in the NF-κB puzzle [PDF]
Hypoxia, or low oxygen availability, is an important physiological stimulus for multicellular organisms. Molecularly, hypoxia induces a transcriptional programme directed at restoration of oxygen homeostasis and cellular survival.

Effects of siRNA-mediated HIF-1α gene silencing on angiogenesis in osteosarcoma
Objective: To explore angiogenesis in osteosarcoma under the condition of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1? gene silenced by small interference RNA (siRNA).Methods: The SaOS-2 osteosarcoma cells, transfected with the recombinant plasmid pSilencer2.1-HIF-1? or pSilencer2.1-SCR, were classified as HIF-1?/siRNA group or SCR/siRNA group, respectively.

Factor inhibiting HIF (FIH-1) promotes renal cancer cell survival by protecting cells from HIF-1α-mediated apoptosis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC) is the commonest form of kidney cancer. Up to 91% have biallelic inactivation of VHL, resulting in stabilisation of HIF-α subunits.
