Predominant Role of Hypoxia-Inducible Transcription Factor
Tumor hypoxia induces the up-regulation of a gene program associated with angiogenesis, glycolysis, adaptation to pH, and apoptosis via the hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (Hifs) 1 and 2. Disruption of this pathway has been proposed as a cancer therapy. Here, we use short interfering RNAs to compare specific inactivation of Hif-1 or Hif-2 and show markedly different cell type-specific e...
متن کاملRole of hypoxia-inducible factor-1a rget
Hypoxia occurs in solid tumours due to a mismatch between tumour growth and angiogenesis. Hypoxia in solid tumours is associated with an aggressive phenotype and resistance to radiation therapy and chemotherapy leading to poor patient prognosis. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is a transcription factor, which is activated in response to intratumoural hypoxia and as a result of genetic altera...

Naïve T cells activated by antigen-presenting cells (APC) can be differentiated into at least four major types of T-helper (T(H)) cells: T(H)1, T(H)2, T(H)17 and inducible regulatory T cells (iTreg) based on their unique cytokine production profiles and characteristic functions.(1) T(H)1 produce interferon-γ (IFNγ) and are important for protective immune responses to intracellular viral, bacter...
متن کاملHypoxia. Hypoxia, hypoxia inducible factor and myeloid cell function
With little in the way of effective therapeutic strategies to target the innate immune response, a better understanding of the critical pathways regulating neutrophil and macrophage responses in inflammation is key to the development of novel therapies. Hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) was originally identified as a central transcriptional regulator of cellular responses to oxygen deprivation. Ho...
