Abstract excerpt
Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) plays a key role in mediating cancer cell malignant characteristics. Recent studies have shown that the histone demethylase JMJD2B is a target of HIF-1α, suggesting that histone methylation may be involved in tumor malignancy during hypoxia. However, little is...
