Signal transduction to hypoxia-inducible factor 1.

TLDR
In human cancer cells, both intratumoral hypoxia and genetic alterations affecting signal transduction pathways lead to increased HIF-1 activity, which promotes angiogenesis, metabolic adaptation, and other critical aspects of tumor progression.

Radiation-induced lung injury (RILI)

TL;DR: Current understanding of the pathological and molecular consequences of lung exposure to ionizing radiation, and pharmaceutical interventions that may be beneficial in the prevention or curtailment of RILI, and therefore enable a more durable therapeutic tumor response are summarized.

Lactate dehydrogenase-5 (LDH-5) expression in human gastric cancer: association with hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1alpha) pathway, angiogenic factors production and poor prognosis.

TL;DR: The results of the current study show that LDH-5 expression may be a useful prognostic factor for patients with gastric carcinoma.

A novel role of hypoxia-inducible factor in cobalt chloride-and hypoxia-mediated expression of IL-8 chemokine in human endothelial cells

TL;DR: The data indicate that hypoxia-induced signaling in vascular endothelium for transcriptional activation of IL-8 involves PI3K/Akt, p38 MAPK, and HIF-1α, which may possibly ameliorate inflammation associated with Hypoxia in pathological diseases.

Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 is a basic-helix-loop-helix-PAS heterodimer regulated by cellular O2 tension

TL;DR: Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) is found in mammalian cells cultured under reduced O2 tension and is necessary for transcriptional activation mediated by the erythropoietin gene enhancer in hypoxic cells.

Targeting of HIF-alpha to the von Hippel-Lindau Ubiquitylation Complex by O2-Regulated Prolyl Hydroxylation

TL;DR: It is shown that the interaction between human pVHL and a specific domain of the HIF-1α subunit is regulated through hydroxylation of a proline residue by an enzyme the authors have termed Hif-α prolyl-hydroxylase (HIF-PH).
Journal ArticleDOI

The tumour suppressor protein VHL targets hypoxia-inducible factors for oxygen-dependent proteolysis

TL;DR: It is indicated that the interaction between HIF-1 and pVHL is iron dependent, and that it is necessary for the oxygen-dependent degradation of HIF α-subunits, which may underlie the angiogenic phenotype of VHL-associated tumours.

HIFα Targeted for VHL-Mediated Destruction by Proline Hydroxylation: Implications for O2 Sensing

TL;DR: It is found that human pVHL binds to a short HIF-derived peptide when a conserved proline residue at the core of this peptide is hydroxylated, which may play a key role in mammalian oxygen sensing.
