The Mammalian Hypoxia Response Pathway: Regulation of HIF and HIF Prolyl Hydroxylases
… factor called Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF). HIF is composed of an oxygen-sensitive alpha -, and an oxygen-insensitive beta -subunit (ARNT). The stability and transcriptional activity of HIF alpha are controlled by two different Fe(II)- and 2- oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases that …

Generation and Transcriptomic Analysis of HIF-1Alpha and HIF-2Alpha Knockout 5TGM1 Multiple Myeloma Cells
… are mediated through Hypoxia-Inducible Factor (HIF) signalling. The HIFs are heterodimeric transcription factors that activate the transcription of hundreds of target genes in response to hypoxia. In most solid tumours, HIF signalling is co-opted to contribute to tumour survival and progression. …

HIF and NF-ĸB Crosstalk: The Role of HIF-1β as an Inducer of the Inflammatory Response
… factors NF-kB and Hypoxia Inducible Factors (HIFs), respectively. However, over the past years, the inflammatory response has been associated with hypoxia both in immune cells and in cancer cells. The crosstalk between NF-kB and HIF is extensive, including shared activating stimuli and …

HIF, HAPE, and Hilltop rats: a paradox unfolding
… Madison rats. Hypoxia Inducible Factor-1α (HIF-1α) is exquisitely coupled to cellular hypoxia, enhancing expression of erythropoietin (EPO), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS II), a potent generator of nitric oxide. Therefore, it was …

Role of PBRM1 in regulation of the HIF pathway
… and an oxygen-independent β subunit. In normoxia HIFα is quickly degraded by a VHL-mediated mechanism whereas hypoxia stabilizes this subunit making it available to form an active complex and induce transcription of its target genes. Recently, it was shown that the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling …

HIF-1alpha role in oxygen-dependent radio- and chemosensitivity
… stabilisation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) leads to changes in expression of various genes associated with growth, vascularisation and metabolism. However whether HIF-1α plays a causal role in promoting hypoxic resistance to antitumour therapies remains unclear. In this study we used …

Epigenetic Regulation Of The HIF Pathway And Novel Therapeutic Opportunities
… understanding the epigenetic regulation of the HIF pathway and the efficacy of treatment for retinal diseases and hemangioblastomas using HIF pathway inhibitors. Jumonji domain containing proteins demethylate tri- and dimethylated histone lysines and regulate chromatin structure. Substrate …

DNMT3a Epigenetic Program Regulates the HIF-2alpha Oxygen Sensing Machinery
… in the regulation of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) oxygen-sensing machinery. We show that DNA methyltransferase 3a (DNMT3a) methylates and silences the HIF-2alpha gene (EPAS1) in normal cells. Epigenetic silencing of EPAS1 prevents activation of the HIF-2alpha gene program associated with …

Development of Hif-1Α/Hif-1Β Heterodimerization Inhibitors Using A Novel Bioluminescence Reporter Assay System For In Vitro High Throughput Screening and In Vivo Imaging
… heterodimerization of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α and HIF-1β, which subsequently upregulates the expression of several hypoxia-inducible genes, promotes cell survival and stimulates angiogenesis in the oxygen-deprived environment. Hypoxic tumor regions are often associated with resistance …

HIF-2: Standing Guard at the Crossroads of Stress and Aging
… α (alpha) subunit of Hypoxia inducible factors (HIF-1alpha and HIF-2 alpha). HIF-1 alpha and HIF-2 alpha have similar structural organization, and after forming an obligate heterodimer with the common partner ARNT/HIF-1 alpha, bind to the same recognition element located in target gene promoter …

Evaluation Of HIF Inhibitors For The Treatment of Ocular Neovascular Diseases
Hypoxia-inducible-factor (HIF)-mediated expression of pro-angiogenic genes under hypoxia is the fundamental cause of pathological neovascularization in ocular diseases and cancers. Thus, the inhibitors of the HIF pathway or key regulators such as histone demethylases (KDMs), that amplify HIF …

Role of the NF-kappaB-HIF Crosstalk in Inflammation and Hypoxia
… factor called Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF). HIF has recently been associated with a role in inflammation and immunity. Importantly, HIF-1alpha has shown to be regulated by the major inflammatory responsive transcription factor, NF-kappaB (nuclear factor kappaB). Here it is demonstrated …

A HIF-INDEPENDENT PROGRAM SUSTAINS TUMOR TREG FUNCTION IN OXYGEN-DEPRIVED ENVIRONMENTS
… of Treg showed reduced hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) signaling in TI- Treg, so we explored alternative responses. We performed time-course RNA-seq of Treg in either oxygen condition and analyzed transcription factor motifs in differential cis-regulatory elements, finding oxygen sensor RBPJ to be …
