HIF1A expression

The quantitative parameters of DECT have a certain correlation with HIF-1α expression in NSCLC. Moreover, it has been demonstrated that DECT can be used to predict hypoxia in tumor tissues and the prognosis of lung cancer patients.

This research contributed to the growing body of evidence supporting the role of metabolic modulators in cancer therapy and emphasized the importance of understanding tumor microenvironments to optimize treatment outcomes. However, the need for further research into the metabolic pathways is underscored to enhance therapeutic strategies for cancer treatment.

The Drosophila melanogaster gene similar ( sima ), which encodes the sole fly ortholog of Hif1α, is required to up-regulate glycolysis in preparation for larval growth. sima mutant larvae exhibit severe defects in carbohydrate metabolism and die during the second larval instar. sima mutant larvae exhibit the same metabolic phenotypes as Drosophila Estrogen Related Receptor ( dERR ) mutants, suggesting that these two transcription factors coordinately regulate the larval glycolytic program. Sima/Hif1α and dERR accumulation is mutually dependent, as loss of either transcription factor results in decreased abundance of the other.

Hypoxia-induced high HIF-1α expression upregulated YTHDF2 through hH3K18la modification, enhanced YTHDF2-BNIP3 interaction, and regulated BNIP3-dependent mitophagy-mediated metabolic reprogramming to affect glioma proliferation and invasion.

Both MEK1/ERK and PI-3 K/Akt SPW play crucial roles in bFGF-mediated HIF-1 activation. BFGF had a notable activation of HIF-1. PI-3 K/Akt and MEK1/ERK SPW worked together to regulate this process by various mechanisms.

We also discuss the canonical and non-canonical regulation of HIF-1α and HIF-2α under hypoxic and normal conditions. Finally, we outline recent strategies aimed at targeting HIF-1α and/or HIF-2α.

Furthermore, morusin effectively reversed EMT induced by phospho-STAT3 or HIF-1α. Morusin has a reversing effect on the EMT of gallbladder cancer cells by modulating STAT3/HIF-1α signaling.

Nuclear circHIF-1α interacted with human antigen R protein (HUR) to increase HIF-1α expression. Thus, our results demonstrated that circHIF-1α ameliorates senescence and exacerbates growth in PC cells by increasing HIF-1α through targeting miR-375 and HUR, suggesting that targeting circHIF-1α offers a potential therapeutic candidate for PC.

Clinical data demonstrate circPLOD2a and b are highly expressed in GBM negatively correlated with XIRP1, whose lower expression associates with higher glioma grade and worse prognosis. In conclusion, hypoxia-induced circPLOD2a and b are oncogenic regulators of tumour aggressiveness through attenuating the interaction between HuR and XIRP1 in glioblastoma cells and may be potential therapeutic targets for this disease.

Enrichment analysis indicated enrichment of these hub targets in the programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) checkpoint, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases/protein kinase B (PI3K-Akt), Ras, and hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) signalling pathways with significant cut-offs of FDR < 0.01 and p < 0.05. Therefore, network pharmacology and molecular docking analyses revealed that dehydroxy-isocalamendiol and spathulenol exert therapeutic efficacy on gastric cancer by multiple targets, NFKB1 and HIF1A, and pathways (MAPK, PD-L1 checkpoint, PI3K-Akt, Ras, and HIF-1 pathways).

In conclusion, the ergosteroids present in marine sponge C. aerizusa extract signified a remarkable reduction in malignancy, migration, and invasion capabilities in A549 lung carcinoma cells. These results suggested their promising candidacy for future anti-angiogenesis in anticancer therapy.

Furthermore, in vivo administration of PYZ promotes the infiltration of CD8+ T cells into the tumor and inhibits tumor growth, an effect that is attenuated in Nude mice or mice with CD8+ T cell depletion or deficiency of Ifnar. Overall, our findings showed that pyrithione zinc could trigger tumor immunogenicity by downregulating MMR machinery and activating STING pathway in tumor cells, and provide a translational approach to improve immunotherapy on pMMR cancer.
