Identification of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 ancillary sequence and its function in vascular endothelial growth factor gene induction by hypoxia and nitric oxide. [PDF]
Transcription of hypoxia-inducible genes is regulated by hypoxia response elements (HREs) located in either the promoter or enhancer regions. Analysis of these elements reveals the presence of one or more binding sites for hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-

Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1 and Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
Cardiac function is required for blood circulation and systemic oxygen delivery. However, the heart has intrinsic oxygen demands that must be met to maintain effective contractility. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) is a transcription factor that functions as a master regulator of oxygen homeostasis in all metazoan species.

Hypoxia-inducible Factor 1 Activation by Aerobic Glycolysis Implicates the Warburg Effect in Carcinogenesis [PDF]
Cancer cells display high rates of aerobic glycolysis, a phenomenon known historically as the Warburg effect. Lactate and pyruvate, the end products of glycolysis, are highly produced by cancer cells even in the presence of oxygen.

Ecto-5′-nucleotidase (CD73) regulation by hypoxia-inducible factor-1 mediates permeability changes in intestinal epithelia [PDF]
Under conditions of limited oxygen availability (hypoxia), multiple cell types release adenine nucleotides in the form of ATP, ADP, and AMP. Extracellular AMP is metabolized to adenosine by surface-expressed ecto-5'-nucleotidase (CD73) and subsequently ...

The importance of the tumor microenvironment for cancer progression and therapeutic resistance is an emerging focus of cancer biology. Hypoxia, or low oxygen, is a hallmark of solid tumors that promotes metastasis and represents a significant obstacle to

Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 in tumour angiogenesis
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), composed of HIF-alpha and HIF-beta subunits, is a heterodimeric transcriptional activator. In response to hypoxia, stimulation of growth factors, and activation of oncogenes as well as carcinogens, HIF-1alpha is overexpressed and/or activated and targets those genes which are required for angiogenesis, metabolic ...

Epithelial hypoxia-inducible factor-1 is protective in murine experimental colitis [PDF]
Mucosal epithelial cells are uniquely equipped to maintain barrier function even under adverse conditions. Previous studies have implicated hypoxia in mucosal tissue damage resulting from both acute and chronic inflammation.

Non-Canonical Mechanisms Regulating Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1 Alpha in Cancer
Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) orchestrates cellular adaptation to low oxygen and nutrient-deprived environment and drives progression to malignancy in human solid cancers. Its canonical regulation involves prolyl hydroxylases (PHDs), which in

Hypoxia induces autophagy in cardiomyocytes via a hypoxia-inducible factor 1-dependent mechanism
Hypoxia frequently accompanies such vascular disorders as atherosclerosis, thrombosis and ischemia/reperfusion injury. Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion, in particular, is a major contributor to cardiomyocyte impairment. Autophagy is a dynamic, self-catabolic process that has been implicated in a wide range of physiological processes and the pathogenesis
