Upregulation of hypoxia-induced mitogenic factor in compensatory lung growth after pneumonectomy.
After pneumonectomy, the remaining lung increases in size. This process is referred to as compensatory lung growth. Various pathways likely play important roles in this growth response. The molecular mechanisms involved in compensatory lung growth, however, remain poorly understood. Hypoxia-induced mitogenic factor (HIMF), also called FIZZ1 or RELM-alpha, possesses mitogenic, vasoconstrictive, ...
متن کاملHypoxia-induced mitogenic factor has antiapoptotic action and is upregulated in the developing lung: coexpression with hypoxia-inducible factor-2alpha.
Hypoxia-induced mitogenic factor (HIMF), also called FIZZ1 or RELMalpha, was a newly found cytokine. Hypoxia caused robust HIMF induction in the lung, and HIMF has potent pulmonary vasoconstrictive, proliferative, and angiogenic properties. To investigate the role of HIMF in lung development, we determined its spatial and temporal expression. From embryonic day (E)16 to postnatal day (P)28, HIM...
متن کاملHypoxia-Induced Mitogenic Factor (HIMF/FIZZ1/RELMα) Recruits Bone Marrow-Derived Cells to the Murine Pulmonary Vasculature
BACKGROUND Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a disease of multiple etiologies with several common pathological features, including inflammation and pulmonary vascular remodeling. Recent evidence has suggested a potential role for the recruitment of bone marrow-derived (BMD) progenitor cells to this remodeling process. We recently demonstrated that hypoxia-induced mitogenic factor (HIMF/FIZZ1/RELM ...
متن کاملFIZZ1 could enhance the angiogenic ability of rat aortic endothelial cells.
Found in inflammatory zone (FIZZ1), also known as hypoxia-induced mitogenic factor (HIMF), is a secreted protein formed by 111 amino acid residues. FIZZ1 is mainly located in alveolar epithelial cells, white adipose tissue and the heart. This study aimed to explore the effects of FIZZ1 on the angiogenic ability of cultured rat aortic endothelial cells (RAECs) and the potential mechanism. The RA...
متن کاملHypoxia-induced mitogenic factor (HIMF/FIZZ1/RELMalpha) induces the vascular and hemodynamic changes of pulmonary hypertension.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a serious disease of multiple etiologies mediated by hypoxia, immune stimuli, and elevated pulmonary pressure that leads to vascular thickening and eventual right heart failure. In a chronic hypoxia model of PH, we previously reported the induction of a novel pleiotropic cytokine, hypoxia-induced mitogenic factor (HIMF), that exhibits mitogenic, vasculogenic, cont...
