Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) during hypoxia and its dependency on hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha (HIF-1alpha) in pancreatic cancer cell lines. METHODS: MiaPaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cells were transiently transfected with siRNA to HIF-1alpha and TXNIP protein measured after growth in normoxia or hypoxia. In addition, HIF-1alpha dependency was assessed by...
