Inactivating mutations of the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor gene are associated with inherited VHL syndrome, which is characterized by susceptibility to a variety of neoplasms, including central nervous system hemangioblastoma and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC). Mutations in the VHL gene are also found in the majority of sporadic clear cell renal carcinoma, the most common m...
Arsenic is well established as a human carcinogen, but the molecular mechanisms leading to arsenic-induced carcinogenesis are complex and elusive. It is also not known if lncRNAs are involved in arsenic-induced liver carcinogenesis. We have found that MALAT1, a non-coding RNA, is over-expressed in the sera of people exposed to arsenite and in hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs), and MALAT1 has a c...
Hypoxia reduces the oxygen supply to tumor cells and may limit tumor cell growth. However, hypoxia promotes tumor cell metabolic adaptation, apoptosis resistance, angiogenesis, invasion, and metastasis. Hypoxia-inducible factor-2α (HIF-2α) may be responsible for these hypoxia-induced changes. In this study, we investigated the effects of hypoxia and HIF-2α knockdown in HeLa cells. HIF-2α shRNA ...
Leukemogenesis occurs under hypoxic conditions within the bone marrow (BM). Knockdown of key mediators of cellular responses to hypoxia with shRNA, namely hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) or HIF-2α, in human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) samples results in their apoptosis and inability to engraft, implicating HIF-1α or HIF-2α as therapeutic targets. However, genetic deletion of Hif-1α has no...
Transcription factor AP-2α is involved in many types of human cancers, but its role in hepatocellular carcinogenesis is largely unknown. In this study, we found that expression of AP-2α was low in 40% of human hepatocellular cancers compared with adjacent normal tissues by immunohistochemical analysis. Moreover, AP-2α expression was low or absent in hepatocellular cancer cell lines (HepG2, Hep3...
Prostaglandin F(2α) (PGF(2α)) induces luteolysis within a few days in cows, and immune cells increase in number in the regressing corpus luteum (CL), implying that luteolysis is an inflammatory-like immune response. We investigated the rapid change in polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) numbers in response to PGF(2α) administration as the first cells recruited to inflammatory sites, together wit...
Beluga whale pVHL enhances HIF-2α activity via inducing HIF-2α proteasomal degradation under hypoxia
Aquatic mammals, such as cetaceans experience various depths, with accordingly diverse oxygenation, thus, cetaceans have developed adaptations for hypoxia, but mechanisms underlying this tolerance to low oxygen are unclear. Here we analyzed VHL and HIF-2α, in the hypoxia signaling pathway. Variations in VHL are greater than HIF-2α between cetaceans and terrestrial mammals, and beluga whale VHL ...
Reduced Expression of Transcription Factor AP-2α Is Associated with Gastric Adenocarcinoma Prognosis
BACKGROUND This study aims to investigate the expression and prognostic significance of activator protein 2α (AP-2α) in gastric adenocarcinoma. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS AP-2α expression was analyzed using real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), western blotting, and immunohistochemical staining methods on tissue samples from a consecutive series of 481 gastric adenocarcinoma patients who ...
AIMS An increasing number of clinical studies highlight the importance of the inflammatory mediator prostaglandin F2 α (PGF(2α)). Prostaglandin F2 α activity has been suggested to play pivotal roles in the development of cardiovascular diseases and cancer. However, whether systemic PGF(2α) concentrations may signal mortality is unknown. The aim was to evaluate in vivo PGF(2α) formation, by meas...
Hypoxia inducible factor 2α (HIF-2α) is critical for primordial germ cell (PGC) survival as knockout of HIF-2α (HIF-2α(-/-)) decreases both expression of Oct-4 and PGC number in genital ridge. Hypoxia is known to stabilize HIF-2α protein from proteasomal degradation. However, little is known about the hypoxia-associated endocrinal signaling in HIF-2α expression. The current work demonstrates a ...
