Example sentences for: hif-

How can you use “hif-” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • ang = angiopoietin; CEP = circulating endothelial precursor; FGF = fibroblast growth factor; FGF-1 = acidic fibroblast growth factor; FGF-2 = basic fibroblast growth factor; HIF-1α = hypoxia inducible factor-1 alpha; SPECT = single photon emission computed tomography; VEGF = vascular endothelial growth factor.

  • Another approach that addresses the involvement of multiple factors in therapeutic angiogenesis is the use of a so-called 'master switch gene' of angiogenesis, such as HIF-1α [ 52].

  • However, hypoxia-mediated HIF-1α responses are also linked to the regulation of mitochondrial dysfunction through the formation of excessive reactive oxygen species in mitochondria.

  • An inhibitory effect of USF on Myc-mediated cellular proliferation has been demonstrated in HeLa cells [ 33 ] , and a non-canonical HLH element inhibits expression of the fibroblast growth factor binding protein (FGF-BP) in several carcinoma cells [ 34 ] . Furthermore, USF2 inhibits binding of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) to the plasminogen activator inhibitor -1 (PAI-1) gene in hepatocytes in order to disturb transcriptional activation [ 35 ] . Our results add C/EBPβ-mediated activation of RIIβ to the mechanisms inhibited by USF.

  • A subsequent study, demonstrating an age-dependent reduction in HIF-1α activity, provides one explanation for the lower VEGF-A expression in response to hypoxia in aged animals [ 28].
