Cobalt chloride-induced estrogen receptor alpha down-regulation involves hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The estrogen receptor (ER) is down-regulated under hypoxia via a proteasome-dependent pathway. We studied the mechanism of ERalpha degradation under hypoxic mimetic conditions. Cobalt chloride-induced ERalpha down-regulation was dependent on the expression of newly synthesized protein(s), one possibility of which was hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha). To examine the role of HIF-1alpha expression in ERalpha down-regulation under hypoxic-mimetic conditions, we used a constitutively active form of HIF-1alpha, HIF-1alpha/herpes simplex viral protein 16 (VP16), constructed by replacing the transactivation domain of HIF-1alpha with that of VP16. Western blot analysis revealed that HIF-1alpha/VP16 down-regulated ERalpha in a dose-dependent manner via a proteasome-dependent pathway. The kinase pathway inhibitors PD98059, U0126, wortmannin, and SB203580 did not affect the down-regulation. A mammalian two-hybrid screen and immunoprecipitation assays indicated that ERalpha interacted with HIF-1alpha physically. These results suggest that ERalpha down-regulation under hypoxia involves protein-protein interactions between the ERalpha and HIF-1alpha. 相似文献

Erythropoietin (Epo) is upregulated by hypoxia and provides protection against apoptosis of erythroid progenitors in bone marrow and brain neurons. Here we show in the adult mouse retina that acute hypoxia dose-dependently stimulates expression of Epo, fibroblast growth factor 2 and vascular endothelial growth factor via hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) stabilization. Hypoxic preconditioning protects retinal morphology and function against light-induced apoptosis by interfering with caspase-1 activation, a downstream event in the intracellular death cascade. In contrast, induction of activator protein-1, an early event in the light-stressed retina, is not affected by hypoxia. The Epo receptor required for Epo signaling localizes to photoreceptor cells. The protective effect of hypoxic preconditioning is mimicked by systemically applied Epo that crosses the blood retina barrier and prevents apoptosis even when given therapeutically after light insult. Application of Epo may, through the inhibition of apoptosis, be beneficial for the treatment of different forms of retinal disease. 相似文献

Under normoxic conditions the alpha-subunit of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1alpha) protein is targeted for degradation by the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor protein acting as an E3 ubiquitin ligase. Recently, we developed a hypoxia-targeting protein, TOP3, which consisted of procaspase-3 with the VHL-mediated protein destruction motif of HIF-1alpha. This design enables procaspase-3 to be regulated similarly with HIF-1alpha, being degraded under normoxia while stabilized under hypoxia. Furthermore, stabilized TOP3 was cleaved by the hypoxic stress-induced endogenous caspases and thus the procaspase-3 was converted to active caspase-3 specifically under hypoxic conditions. These data demonstrated that the VHL-mediated protein destruction motif of HIF-1alpha endowed procaspase-3 with hypoxia-specific cytotoxicity. 相似文献
