Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1 Mediates Upregulation of Telomerase (hTERT)
15 Jun 2004
Abstract excerpt
Hypoxia occurs during the development of the placenta in the first trimester and correlates with both trophoblast differentiation and the induction of telomerase activity through hTERT expression. We sought to determine the mechanism of regulation of hTERT expression during hypoxia. We show that hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha (HIF-1alpha) and hTERT expression in the human placenta decrease with gestational age...
