Long non-coding RNA COL4A2-AS1 facilitates cell proliferation and glycolysis of colorectal cancer cells via miR-20b-5p/hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha subunit axis. [PDF]
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have critical functions in tumorigenesis and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). The role of lncRNA COL4A2-AS1 (COL4A2-AS1) lacks system investigation. The current study comprehensively analyzed the expression, biological functions, and mechanism of COL4A2-AS1 in CRC through performing real-time quantitative PCR (RT ...

Suppression of collagen IV alpha‐2 subunit by prolyl hydroxylase domain inhibition via hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1 in chronic kidney disease [PDF]
AbstractElevation of hypoxia‐inducible factor 1 protein has been shown to be protective in acute kidney injury and HIF1α enhancing drug therapies are currently in clinical trials for the treatment of anemia of chronic kidney disease. Despite its benefits, long‐term HIF1 elevation seems to be associated with additional effects in the kidneys such as ...

Intratumoral hypoxia is a common feature of pancreatic cancer (PC) and also plays a role in its progression. However, hypoxia-regulated signatures in PC are still not completely understood. This study aimed to identify core hypoxia-associated genes and determine their underlying molecular mechanisms in PC cells.

Activation of Hypoxia-inducible Factor-1; Definition of Regulatory Domains within the α Subunit [PDF]
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), a heterodimeric DNA binding complex composed of two basic-helix-loop-helix Per-AHR-ARNT-Sim proteins (HIF-1alpha and -1beta), is a key component of a widely operative transcriptional response activated by hypoxia, cobaltous ions, and iron chelation.

The association between hypoxia inducible factor 1 subunit alpha gene rs2057482 polymorphism and cancer risk: a meta-analysis [PDF]
Abstract Background The rs2057482 polymorphism in the hypoxia inducible factor 1 subunit alpha (HIF1A) gene has been reported to be associated with a risk of several types of cancer, but this association has not yet been definitively confirmed.

Selection and Analysis of a Mutant Cell Line Defective in the Hypoxia-inducible Factor-1 α-Subunit (HIF-1α) [PDF]
Hypoxia-inducible expression has been demonstrated for many groups of mammalian genes, and studies of transcriptional control have revealed the existence of hypoxia-responsive elements (HREs) in the cis-acting sequences of several of these genes. These sequences generally contain one or more binding sites for a heterodimeric DNA binding complex termed ...

Activation of the Hypoxia Inducible Factor 1α Subunit Pathway in Steatotic Liver Contributes to Formation of Cholesterol Gallstones [PDF]
Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α subunit (HIF1A) is a transcription factor that controls the cellular response to hypoxia and is activated in hepatocytes of patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD increases the risk for cholesterol gallstone disease by unclear mechanisms.

Ischemia and reperfusion injury in kidney transplantation : relevant mechanisms in injury and repair [PDF]
Ischemia and reperfusion injury (IRI) is a complex pathophysiological phenomenon, inevitable in kidney transplantation and one of the most important mechanisms for non- or delayed function immediately after transplantation.

AMP-Activated Protein Kinase alpha 2 in Neutrophils Regulates Vascular Repair via Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1 alpha and a Network of Proteins Affecting Metabolism and Apoptosis [PDF]
Rationale: The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is stimulated by hypoxia, and although the AMPK alpha 1 catalytic subunit has been implicated in angiogenesis, little is known about the role played by the AMPK alpha 2 subunit in vascular repair ...
