Abstract excerpt
Tyrosine kinase cascades may play a role in the hypoxic regulation of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1. We investigated the role of tyrosine kinase phosphorylation and of the Shc/Ras cascade on hypoxic HIF-1 stabilization. Exposure of human umbilical vein endothelial cells to hypoxia results in HIF protein stabilization as early as 10 minutes, with a maximum at 3 hours, and also in Shc tyrosine phosphorylation,...
