Paraquat (PQ) poisoning‐induced pulmonary fibrosis is one of the primary causes of death in patients with PQ poisoning. Hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α (HIF‐1α) and epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) are involved in the progression of pulmonary fibrosis. Snail and β‐catenin are two other factors involved in promoting EMT. However, the relationship among HIF‐1α, Snail and β‐catenin in PQ poisoning‐induced pulmonary fibrosis is not clear. Our research aimed to determine whether the regulation of HIF‐1α in EMT occurs via the Snail and β‐catenin pathways in PQ poisoning‐induced pulmonary fibrosis. Sixty‐six Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly and evenly divided into a control group and a PQ group. The PQ group was treated with an intragastric infusion of a 20% PQ solution (50 mg/kg) for 2, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hrs. A549 and RLE‐6TN cell lines were transfected with HIF‐1α siRNA for 48 hrs before being exposed to PQ. Western blotting, real‐time quantitative PCR, immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry and other assays were used in our research. In vivo, the protein levels of HIF‐1α and α‐SMA were increased at 2 hrs and the level of ZO‐1 (Zonula Occluden‐1) was reduced at 12 hrs. In vitro, the transient transfection of HIF‐1α siRNA resulted in a decrease in the degree of EMT. The expression levels of Snail and β‐catenin were significantly reduced when HIF‐α was silenced. These data demonstrate that EMT may be involved in PQ poisoning‐induced pulmonary fibrosis and regulated by HIF‐1α via the Snail and β‐catenin pathways. Hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α may be a therapeutic target for the treatment of PQ poisoning‐induced pulmonary fibrosis. 相似文献

Chemoresistance is a critical challenge in the clinical treatment of triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC). It has been well documented that inflammatory mediators from tumor microenvironment are involved in the pathogenesis of TNBC and might be related to chemoresistance of cancer cells. In this study, the contribution of interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), one of the principal oncogenic molecules, in chemoresistance of a TNBC cell line MDA‐MB‐231 was first investigated. The results showed that IL‐6 treatment could induce upregulation of HIF‐1α via the activation of STAT3 in MDA‐MB‐231 cells, which consequently contributed to its effect against chemotherapeutic drug‐induced cytotoxicity and cell apoptosis. However, knockdown of HIF‐1α attenuated such effect via affecting the expressions of apoptosis‐related molecules as Bax and Bcl‐2 and drug transporters as P‐gp and MRP1. This study indicated that targeting at IL‐6/HIF‐1α signaling pathway might be an effective strategy to overcome chemoresistance in TNBC therapy. 相似文献

Despite the improvement in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatments, most patients had a poor prognosis and suffered from chemoresistance and disease relapse. Therefore, there is an urgent need for elucidation of mechanism(s) underlying drug resistance in AML. In the present study, we found that AML cells showed less susceptibility to adriamycin (ADR) in the presence of hypoxia, while inhibition of hypoxia‐inducible factor 1α (HIF‐1α) by CdCl2 can make AML cells re‐susceptibile to ADR even under hypoxia. Moreover, HIF‐1α is overexpressed and plays an important role in ADR‐resistance maintenance in resistant AML cells. We further found hypoxia or induction of HIF‐1α can significantly upregulate yes‐associated protein (YAP) expression in AML cells, and resistant cells express a high level of YAP. Finally, we found that YAP may not only enhance HIF‐1α stability but also promote HIF‐1α's activity on the target gene pyruvate kinase M2. In conclusion, our data indicate that HIF‐1α or YAP may represent a therapeutic target for overcoming resistance toward adriamycin‐based chemotherapy in AML. 相似文献

Retinal neovascularization in retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is the most common cause of blindness for children. Despite evidence that hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)‐1α ‐VEGF axis is associated with the pathogenesis of ROP, the inhibitors of HIF‐1α have not been established as a therapeutic target in the control of ROP pathophysiology. We investigated the hypothesis that degradation of HIF‐1α as a master regulator of angiogenesis in hypoxic condition, using β‐lapachone, would confer protection against hypoxia‐induced retinopathy without affecting physiological vascular development in mice with oxygen‐induced retinopathy (OIR), an animal model of ROP. The effects of β‐lapachone were examined after intraocular injection in mice with OIR. Intraocular administration of β‐lapachone resulted in significant reduction in hypoxia‐induced retinal neovascularization without retinal toxicity or perturbation of developmental retinal angiogenesis. Our results demonstrate that HIF‐1α–mediated VEGF expression in OIR is associated with pathological neovascularization, not physiological angiogenesis. Thus, strategies blocking HIF‐1α in the developing eye in the pathological hypoxia could serve as a novel therapeutic target for ROP. 相似文献

Inflammatory cytokines are closely related to pigmentary changes. In this study, the effects of IFN‐γ on melanogenesis were investigated. IFN‐γ inhibits basal and α‐MSH‐induced melanogenesis in B16 melanoma cells and normal human melanocytes. MITF mRNA and protein expressions were significantly inhibited in response to IFN‐γ. IFN‐γ inhibited CREB binding to the MITF promoter but did not affect CREB phosphorylation. Instead, IFN‐γ inhibited the association of CBP and CREB through the increased association between CREB binding protein (CBP) and STAT1. These findings suggest that IFN‐γ inhibits both basal and α‐MSH‐induced melanogenesis by inhibiting MITF expression. The inhibitory action of IFN‐γ in α‐MSH‐induced melanogenesis is likely to be associated with the sequestration of CBP via the association between CBP and STAT1. These data suggest that IFN‐γ plays a role in controlling inflammation‐ or UV‐induced pigmentary changes. 相似文献

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have drawn great attention because of their therapeutic potential. It has been suggested that intra‐venous infused MSCs could migrate the site of injury to help repair the damaged tissue. However, the mechanism for MSC migration is still not clear so far. In this study, we reported that hypoxia increased chemotaxis migration of MSCs. At 4 and 6 hours after culturing in hypoxic (1% oxygen) conditions, the number of migrated MSCs was significantly increased. Meanwhile, hypoxia also increased the expression of HIF‐1α and SDF‐1. Using small interference RNA, we knocked down the expression of HIF‐1α in MSCs to study the role of HIF‐1α in hypoxia induced migration. Our data indicated that knocking down the expression of HIF‐1α not only abolished the migration of MSCs, but also reduced the expression of SDF‐1. Combining the results of migration assay and expression at RNA and protein level, we demonstrated a novel mechanism that controls the increase of MSCs migration. This mechanism involved HIF‐1α mediated SDF‐1 expression. These findings provide new insight into the role of HIF‐1α in the hypoxia induced MSC migration and can be a benefit for the development of MSC‐based therapeutics for wound healing. 相似文献

Tumour necrosis factor‐α promotes liver ischaemia‐reperfusion injury through the PGC‐1α/Mfn2 pathway
Jun Li Wenbo Ke Qi Zhou Yongzhong Wu Hong Luo Hong Zhou Bin Yang Yu Guo Qichang Zheng Yong Zhang 《Journal of cellular and molecular medicine》2014,18(9):1863-1873
Tumour necrosis factor (TNF)‐α has been considered to induce ischaemia‐reperfusion injury (IRI) of liver which is characterized by energy dysmetabolism. Peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor‐γ co‐activator (PGC)‐1α and mitofusion2 (Mfn2) are reported to be involved in the regulation of mitochondrial function. However, whether PGC‐1α and Mfn2 form a pathway that mediates liver IRI, and if so, what the underlying involvement is in that pathway remain unclear. In this study, L02 cells administered recombinant human TNF‐α had increased TNF‐α levels and resulted in down‐regulation of PGC‐1α and Mfn2 in a rat liver IRI model. This was associated with hepatic mitochondrial swelling, decreased adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, and increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity as well as cell apoptosis. Inhibition of TNF‐α by neutralizing antibody reversed PGC‐1α and Mfn2 expression, and decreased hepatic injury and cell apoptosis both in cell culture and in animals. Treatment by rosiglitazone sustained PGC‐1α and Mfn2 expression both in IR livers, and L02 cells treated with TNF‐α as indicated by increased hepatic mitochondrial integrity and ATP production, reduced ROS and ALT activity as well as decreased cell apoptosis. Overexpression of Mfn2 by lentiviral‐Mfn2 transfection decreased hepatic injury in IR livers and L02 cells treated with TNF‐α. However, there was no up‐regulation of PGC‐1α. These findings suggest that PGC‐1α and Mfn2 constitute a regulatory pathway, and play a critical role in TNF‐α‐induced hepatic IRI. Inhibition of the TNF‐α or PGC‐1α/Mfn2 pathways may represent novel therapeutic interventions for hepatic IRI. 相似文献

Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays an important role in the invasiveness and metastasis of gastric cancer. Therefore, identifying key molecules involved in EMT will provide new therapeutic strategy for treating patients with gastric cancer. TIPE1 is a newly identified member of the TIPE (TNFAIP8) family, and its contributions to progression and metastasis have not been evaluated. In this study, we found that the levels of TIPE1 were significantly reduced and inversely correlated with differentiation status and distant metastasis in primary gastric cancer tissues. We further observed overexpression of TIPE1 in aggressive gastric cancer cell lines decreased their metastatic properties both in vitro and in vivo as demonstrated by markedly inhibiting EMT and metastasis of gastric cancer cells in nude mice. Consistently, gene silencing of TIPE1 in well‐differentiated gastric cancer cell line (AGS) inhibited these processes. Mechanistically, we found that TIPE1‐medicated Wnt/β‐catenin signalling was one of the critical signal transduction pathways that link TIPE1 to EMT inhibition. Importantly, TIPE1 dramatically restrained the expression and activities of MMP2 and MMP9 which are demonstrated to promote tumour progression and are implicated in EMT. Collectively, these findings provide new evidence for a better understanding of the biological activities of TIPE1 in progression and metastasis of gastric cancer and suggest that TIPE1 may be an innovative diagnostic and therapeutic target of gastric cancer. 相似文献
