Polymorphism in the Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1alpha Gene May Confer Susceptibility to LDD in Chinese Cohort
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate whether or not hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) gene variants are associated with the susceptibility and clinical characteristics of lumbar disc degeneration (LDD). METHODS We examined 320 patients with LDD and 447 gender- and age-matched control subjects. We also determined the HIF-1α gene variants, including C1772T (P582S) and G1790A (A588T) pol...
متن کاملHypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha and the glycolytic phenotype in tumors.
Metastatic tumors generally exhibit aerobic glycolysis (the Warburg effect). The advent of [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography imaging, coupled with recent findings linking hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1alpha) overexpression to aggressive cancers, has rekindled an interest in this aspect of tumor metabolism. These studies explore the role of HIF-1alpha in human breast cancer l...
متن کاملA common haplotype and the Pro582Ser polymorphism of the hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF1A) gene in elite endurance athletes.
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF1A) is a transcription factor regulating several genes in response to hypoxic stimuli. HIF1A target genes code for proteins involved in oxygen transport, glycolytic enzymes, and glucose transporters. We investigated whether single-nucleotide polymorphisms and haplotypes in the HIF1A gene are associated with endurance performance in the Genathlete cohort, whic...
متن کاملChrysin inhibits expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha through reducing hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha stability and inhibiting its protein synthesis.
Chrysin is a natural flavonoid and has been shown recently to have anticancer effects. However, the mechanisms that chrysin inhibits cancers are not well known. In this study, we investigated the effects of chrysin on expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) and vascular endothelial growth factor in human prostate cancer DU145 cells. Chrysin inhibited insulin-induced expressio...
متن کاملCytokines and the regulation of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1alpha.
Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)--an oxygen sensor? The HIF-oxygen sensing association type of dogma is, unequivocally, well anchored. But this is only one face of, at least, a double-sided coin. Current concepts charge HIF of taking sides with a yet not well-founded identity--an immunologic sensor and/or regulator. Or, is it really a sensor, put it more correctly, a key player in sensing mechani...
