n-Propyl gallate activates hypoxia-inducible factor 1 by modulating intracellular oxygen-sensing systems
13 Mar 2008
Abstract excerpt
HIF-1 (hypoxia-inducible factor 1) is a master regulator of cellular adaptive responses to hypoxia. The expression and transcriptional activity of the HIF-1alpha subunit is stringently controlled by intracellular oxygen tension through the action of prolyl and asparaginyl hydroxylases. In the present study we demonstrate that PG (n-propyl gallate) activates HIF-1 and expression of its downstream target genes...
