According to the present paradigm, 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1alpha,25-(OH)2D3] is a biologically active hormone; whereas 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25OHD3) is regarded as a prohormone activated through the action of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 1alpha-hydroxylase (1alpha-hydroxylase). Although the role of vitamin D3 in the regulation of growth and differentiation of prostatic epithelial cells has been...
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a disease that impairs the well-being of many aged men. To alleviate BPH symptoms or to find a cure for this disease, key molecules should be identified that control prostate cell proliferation. Recently, HIF-1alpha has attracted attention in this context, because it is highly expressed in hyperplasic prostates and prevents prostate cell death. Thus, given ...
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) is overexpressed in many human tumors and their metastases, and is closely associated with a more aggressive tumor phenotype. In this study, we investigated the effect of resveratrol, a natural product commonly found in grapes and various other fruits, on hypoxia-induced HIF-1alpha protein accumulation and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) ex...
Stromal cell-derived factor 1 alpha (SDF-1alpha), the ligand for G-protein-coupled receptor CXCR4, is a chemotactic factor for T lymphocytes. LIM kinase 1 (LIMK1) phosphorylates cofilin, an actin-depolymerizing and -severing protein, at Ser-3 and regulates actin reorganization. We investigated the role of cofilin phosphorylation by LIMK1 in SDF-1alpha-induced chemotaxis of T lymphocytes. SDF-1a...
OBJECTIVE To determine the contribution made by synovial fluid (SF) neutrophils to the augmented expression of macrophage inflammatory protein 1 alpha (MIP-1alpha) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS Neutrophils were isolated from samples of SF from RA patients and peripheral blood (PB) samples from RA patients and healthy controls. Cell associated MIP-1alpha was visualised immunohistochemi...
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) enhances the proliferation and migration of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), which contribute to the pathogenesis of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH). Previous reports have demonstrated that hypoxia upregulates ACE expression, but the underlying mechanism is unknown. Here, we found that ACE is persistently upregulated in PASMCs on the transc...
Although hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) has long been intensively investigated as a drug target by interfering with its expression or transcriptional function, the regulatory mechanisms of HIF-1alpha remain to be further clarified. We report here that c-Jun associates with HIF-1alpha via its oxygen-dependent degradation domain, masks the sites for ubiquitination, and thus protects...
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha), a member of the transcription family characterized by a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain and a PAS domain, regulates the transcription of hypoxia-inducible genes involved in erythropoiesis, vascular remodelling and glucose/energy metabolism. It contains bHLH/PAS domains in the N-terminal half, and a nuclear localization signal (NLS) and two tran...
Inflammation underlies most age-related diseases, including cancer, but the etiology is poorly understood. One proposed factor is the presence of senescent cells, which increase with age. The senescence response arrests the proliferation of potentially oncogenic cells, and most senescent cells secrete high levels of proinflammatory cytokines and other proteins. The complex senescence-associated...
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) transcriptionally regulates expression of several target genes in protecting tissues against hypoxia. With hypoxic stress, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a signal protein produced by cells and further contributes to improvement of vascular functions and restoring the oxygen supply to tissues. In this current study, we first hypothesized...
