Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1 (HIF-1) Up-Regulates Adrenomedullin Expression in Human Tumor Cell Lines during Oxygen Deprivation: A Possible Promotion Mechanism of Carcinogenesis
2000-06-01
Abstract excerpt
Little is known about the molecular mechanisms that control adrenomedullin (AM) production in human cancers. We demonstrate here that the expression of AM mRNA in a variety of human tumor cell lines is highly induced in a time-dependent manner by reduced oxygen tension (1% O2) or exposure to hypoxia mimetics such as desferrioxamine mesylate (DFX) or CoCl2. This AM expression seems to be under hypoxia-inducible fac...
