BACKGROUND/AIM: The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of hypoxia on proliferation and the expression of HIF-1α (hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha) and JMJD1A (jumonji domain 1A) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).
FaDu and HLaC78 cells were incubated for 1-24 h in hypoxia and normoxia. Cell proliferation, mRNA and protein levels of HIF-1α and JMJD1A were quantified by counting, PCR and western blot.
Hypoxia led to a constant decrease in cell proliferation. Short hypoxia resulted in an increase in HIF-1α mRNA levels. This effect was reversed after longer incubation. The western blot for HIF-1α showed a maximum accumulation after 3-6 h of hypoxia. In FaDu cells, the concentration of JMJD1A reached a peak after 6 h and decreased thereafter, whereas in HLaC78 cells, it presented a second peak after 48 h.
The transcription factors HIF-1α and JMJDA1 were confirmed as relevant hypoxia-dependent regulators of carcinogenesis in HNSCC.
背景/目的:本研究旨在探讨低氧对头颈部鳞状细胞癌(HNSCC)增殖以及缺氧诱导因子 1α(HIF-1α)和 JMJD1A(jumonji 结构域 1A)表达的影响。
将 FaDu 和 HLaC78 细胞在低氧和常氧条件下孵育 1-24 小时。通过计数、PCR 和 Western blot 定量检测 HIF-1α 和 JMJD1A 的细胞增殖、mRNA 和蛋白水平。
低氧导致细胞增殖持续减少。短暂的低氧导致 HIF-1α mRNA 水平增加。这种作用在更长时间的孵育后被逆转。HIF-1α 的 Western blot 显示在低氧 3-6 小时后达到最大积累。在 FaDu 细胞中,JMJD1A 的浓度在 6 小时后达到峰值,随后下降,而在 HLaC78 细胞中,48 小时后出现第二个峰值。
转录因子 HIF-1α 和 JMJDA1 被证实为 HNSCC 中与致癌作用相关的缺氧依赖性调节因子。
