HIF-1α is thought to be a novel regulator which contributes to carcinogenesis. However, the mechanism underlying the effect of HIF-1α in gliomas remains largely unknown.
In the research, we demonstrate that HIF-lα mRNA and protein levels are elevated in glioma cells. The colony formation assays, transwell assays, and wound-healing assays showed that overexpression of HIF-1α promoted proliferation and invasion of glioma cells.
Overexpression of HIF-lα also increased the expression of inflammatory factors related to pyrolysis (TNF-α, IL-10, and IL-1β) and protein related to pyrolysis signal pathway (NLRP3, ASC, caspase-1, GSDMD, and GSDME).
Therefore, we speculate that HIF-1α promotes the proliferation and invasion of glial cells by regulating pyrolysis pathway. These results might provide a novel strategy and target for treatment of glioma.
缺氧诱导因子-1α(HIF-1α)被认为是一种参与肿瘤发生的新型调节因子。然而,HIF-1α在胶质瘤中发挥作用的潜在机制仍 largely未知。
在本研究中,我们证明胶质瘤细胞中HIF-1α的mRNA和蛋白质水平升高。集落形成试验、Transwell试验和伤口愈合试验表明,HIF-1α的过表达促进了胶质瘤细胞的增殖和侵袭。
HIF-1α的过表达还增加了与焦亡相关的炎症因子(肿瘤坏死因子-α、白细胞介素-10和白细胞介素-1β)以及与焦亡信号通路相关的蛋白质(NLRP3、ASC、半胱天冬酶-1、Gasdermin D和Gasdermin E)的表达。
因此,我们推测HIF-1α通过调节焦亡途径促进胶质细胞的增殖和侵袭。这些结果可能为胶质瘤的治疗提供一种新的策略和靶点。
