The hypoxia-mimetic agent cobalt chloride induces cell cycle arrest and alters gene expression in U266 multiple myeloma cells.
Hypoxia is a common feature of tumors that occurs across a wide variety of malignancies. Multiple myeloma is an incurable malignant disorder of plasma cells in the bone marrow. Although bone marrow hypoxia is crucial for normal hematopoiesis, the effect of hypoxia on multiple myeloma is poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrated that cobalt...
متن کاملEffects of Cobalt Chloride, a Hypoxia-Mimetic Agent, on Autophagy and Atrophy in Skeletal C2C12 Myotubes
BACKGROUND Hypoxia-induced autophagy and muscle wasting occur in several environmental and pathological conditions. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of the hypoxia-mimetic agent CoCl2 on autophagy and muscle atrophy are still unclear. METHODS C2C12 myotubes were exposed to increasing concentrations of CoCl2 for 24 hours. Quantitative RT-PCR, Western blotting, and trans...
متن کاملHypoxia Alters Cell Cycle Regulatory Protein Expression and Induces Premature Maturation of Oligodendrocyte Precursor Cells
BACKGROUND Periventricular white matter injury (PWMI) is a common form of brain injury sustained by preterm infants. A major factor that predisposes to PWMI is hypoxia. Because oligodendrocytes (OLs) are responsible for myelination of axons, abnormal OL development or function may affect brain myelination. At present our understanding of the influences of hypoxia on OL development is limited. T...
متن کاملE2F6 inhibits cobalt chloride-mimetic hypoxia-induced apoptosis through E2F1.
E2F6, a potent transcriptional repressor, plays important roles in cell cycle regulation. However, roles of E2F6 in hypoxia-induced apoptosis are unknown. Here, we demonstrated biological functions of E2F6 in hypoxia-induced apoptosis and regulatory pathways. During hypoxia (CoCl(2), 800 microM)-induced human embryonic kidney 293 cell apoptosis, E2F6 expression was down-regulated with concurren...
متن کاملEffect of hypoxia mimetic cobalt chloride on the expression of extracellular-superoxide dismutase in retinal pericytes.
The initial clinical stage of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is characterized by the development of intraretinal microvascular abnormalities. The increased formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is thought to be a key event in the pathogenesis of DR. Extracellular-superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) is an anti-inflammatory enzyme that is distributed mainly in vascular cells and protects cells from ROS...
