Hypoxia Enhances Metastatic Efficiency by Up-Regulating Mdm2 in KHT Cells and Increasing Resistance to Apoptosis
15 Jun 2004
Abstract excerpt
Tumor hypoxia has been reported to be a negative prognostic factor in a number of tumor sites. Both clinical and experimental studies have suggested a positive correlation between tumor hypoxia and increased metastatic efficiency; however, the mechanisms are not understood. In this study, the mechanisms of hypoxia-enhanced metastasis have been investigated in murine KHT fibrosarcoma and SCC VII cells. We have...
