The hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF) are transcription factors that activate the adaptive hypoxic response when oxygen levels are low. The HIF transcriptional program increases oxygen delivery by inducing angiogenesis and by promoting metabolic ...

HIF-1-Independent Mechanisms Regulating Metabolic Adaptation in Hypoxic Cancer Cells
In solid tumours, cancer cells exist within hypoxic microenvironments, and their metabolic adaptation to this hypoxia is driven by HIF-1 transcription factor, which is overexpressed in a broad range of human cancers. HIF inhibitors are under pre-clinical

Effects of Stem Cell Factor on Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1 Alpha Accumulation in Human Acute Myeloid Leukaemia and LAD2 Mast Cells [PDF]
Stem cell factor (SCF) is a hematopoietic growth factor that exerts its activity by signalling through the tyrosine kinase receptor known as Kit or CD117.

Involvement of Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1 in the Inflammatory Responses of Human LAD2 Mast Cells and Basophils [PDF]
We recently showed that hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) plays a crucial role in the pro-allergic functions of human basophils by transcriptional control of energy metabolism via glycolysis as well as directly triggering expression of the angiogenic ...

Molecular cloning and expression analysis of hypoxia inducible factor 1α in tongue sole, Cynoglossus semilaevis (Actinopterygii: Pleuronectiformes: Cynoglossidae), subjected to acute hypoxia [PDF]
Background. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), a subunit of the HIF-1 protein, plays a key role in the regulation of genes involved in hypoxia physiological response.

Research Advance of Hypoxia-regulated miR-210 in Cancer
The uncontrolled proliferation of tumor cells and the relative deficiency of the internal neovascularization network lead to insufficient oxygen supply.

Targeted deletion of HIF-1alpha gene in T cells prevents their inhibition in hypoxic inflamed tissues and improves septic mice survival. [PDF]
Sepsis patients may die either from an overwhelming systemic immune response and/or from an immunoparalysis-associated lack of anti-bacterial immune defence. We hypothesized that bacterial superantigen-activated T cells may be prevented from contribution

HIF-1-Dependent Induction of β3 Adrenoceptor: Evidence from the Mouse Retina
A major player in the homeostatic response to hypoxia is the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1 that transactivates a number of genes involved in neovessel proliferation in response to low oxygen tension.

Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1-Related Diseases and Prospective Therapeutic Tools
Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) is a transcription factor that functions as a master regulator of oxygen homeostasis. HIF-1 regulates the expressions of the proteins that increase oxygen delivery, which enables cells to survive in oxygen-deficient ...
