Increased Expression of Two Alternative Spliced Variants of CD1d Molecule in Human Gastric Cancer
Background: CD1d presents glycolipid antigens to invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells. The role of CD1d in the development of peptic ulcer and gastric cancer has not been revealed, yet. Objective: To clarify the expression of alternatively spliced variants of CD1d in peptic ulcer and gastric cancer. Methods: Patients with dyspepsia were selected and divided into three groups of non-ulcer dys...
متن کاملHypoxia inducible factor 1α gene (HIF-1α) splice variants: potential prognostic biomarkers in breast cancer
BACKGROUND Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) is a master transcriptional regulator of genes regulating oxygen homeostasis. The HIF-1 protein is composed of two HIF-1alpha and HIF-1beta/aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT) subunits. The prognostic relevance of HIF-1alpha protein overexpression has been shown in breast cancer. The impact of HIF-1alpha alternative splice variant ...
متن کاملHypoxia inducible factor-1α in human emphysema lung tissue.
The pathobiology of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is not completely understood. The aim of this study was to assess the expression of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1α in lung tissue from patients with COPD/emphysema. Lung tissue samples from 26 patients were included in this study. Seven samples were obtained from patients with normal lung function, the remainder of the samples ...
متن کاملHypoxia, Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1α, and Innate Antileishmanial Immune Responses
Low oxygen environments and accumulation of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) are features of infected and inflamed tissues. Here, we summarize our current knowledge on oxygen levels found in Leishmania-infected tissues and discuss which mechanisms potentially contribute to local tissue oxygenation in leishmanial lesions. Moreover, we review the role of hypoxia and HIF-1 on innate antileishmania...
متن کاملRegulation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α by NF-κB
HIF (hypoxia-inducible factor) is the main transcription factor activated by low oxygen tensions. HIF-1alpha (and other alpha subunits) is tightly controlled mostly at the protein level, through the concerted action of a class of enzymes called PHDs (prolyl hydroxylases) 1, 2 and 3. Most of the knowledge of HIF derives from studies following hypoxic stress; however, HIF-1alpha stabilization is ...
