HIF-1 or hypoxia inducible factor 1, is a transcription factor commonly referred to as a ""master regulator of the hypoxic response"" for its central role in the regulation of cellular adaptations to hypoxia. Hypoxia contributes to the pathophysiology of human disease, including myocardial and cerebral ischemia, cancer, pulmonary hypertension, congenital heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. A highly specific HIF-1 alpha antibody, essential for studying hypoxia-inducible factors and oxygen homeostasis. This antibody is crucial in tumor hypoxia research, particularly in understanding cancer progression and angiogenesis. It is widely used in studies of metastasis and HIF-1 alpha inhibitors.

Supplementary information

HIF-1 alpha also known as hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha is a transcription factor critical in cellular response to low oxygen levels. Its molecular weight usually ranges from 93 to 120 kDa. You can find HIF-1 alpha expressed in tissues throughout the body but its expression significantly increases under hypoxic conditions. Researchers often use the HIF-1a ELISA to measure its expression levels. HIF-1 alpha forms a complex with other proteins to perform its functions effectively.
Biological function summary

HIF-1 alpha regulates gene expression in response to hypoxic conditions in cells. It forms a complex with HIF-1 beta to activate transcription of various genes involved in energy metabolism angiogenesis and erythropoiesis. HIF-1 alpha enables cells to adapt to reduced oxygen availability allowing for cellular survival and function under stress. It plays an important role in promoting the expression of genes like VEGF and EPO which are important for vascular and red blood cell development respectively.

Pathways

HIF-1 alpha plays an integral role in the hypoxia signaling pathway and the glycolytic pathway. In the hypoxia signaling pathway HIF-1 alpha partners with VHL (Von Hippel-Lindau) protein that regulates its degradation under normal oxygen conditions. When oxygen levels drop HIF-1 alpha avoids degradation stabilizes and translocates into the nucleus to initiate transcription of hypoxia-responsive genes. The glycolytic pathway involvement highlights its function in adapting energy production under hypoxic conditions through collaboration with enzymes and transporters associated with glycolysis.

HIF-1 alpha has been implicated in cancer and ischemic diseases. Its role in promoting angiogenesis and metabolic adaptation makes it a contributor to tumor growth and survival collaborating with oncogenes such as c-Myc. In ischemic diseases like stroke or myocardial infarction HIF-1 alpha's ability to induce protective responses can mitigate tissue damage through regulation of survival pathways. Understanding these interactions helps in the development of therapeutic strategies targeting HIF-1 alpha in disease contexts.

Target data

Functions as a master transcriptional regulator of the adaptive response to hypoxia (PubMed : 11292861, PubMed : 11566883, PubMed : 15465032, PubMed : 16973622, PubMed : 17610843, PubMed : 18658046, PubMed : 20624928, PubMed : 22009797, PubMed : 30125331, PubMed : 9887100). Under hypoxic conditions, activates the transcription of over 40 genes, including erythropoietin, glucose transporters, glycolytic enzymes, vascular endothelial growth factor, HILPDA, and other genes whose protein products increase oxygen delivery or facilitate metabolic adaptation to hypoxia (PubMed : 11292861, PubMed : 11566883, PubMed : 15465032, PubMed : 16973622, PubMed : 17610843, PubMed : 20624928, PubMed : 22009797, PubMed : 30125331, PubMed : 9887100). Plays an essential role in embryonic vascularization, tumor angiogenesis and pathophysiology of ischemic disease (PubMed : 22009797). Heterodimerizes with ARNT; heterodimer binds to core DNA sequence 5'-TACGTG-3' within the hypoxia response element (HRE) of target gene promoters (By similarity). Activation requires recruitment of transcriptional coactivators such as CREBBP and EP300 (PubMed : 16543236, PubMed : 9887100). Activity is enhanced by interaction with NCOA1 and/or NCOA2 (PubMed : 10594042). Interaction with redox regulatory protein APEX1 seems to activate CTAD and potentiates activation by NCOA1 and CREBBP (PubMed : 10202154, PubMed : 10594042). Involved in the axonal distribution and transport of mitochondria in neurons during hypoxia (PubMed : 19528298).. (Microbial infection) Upon infection by human coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, is required for induction of glycolysis in monocytes and the consequent pro-inflammatory state (PubMed : 32697943). In monocytes, induces expression of ACE2 and cytokines such as IL1B, TNF, IL6, and interferons (PubMed : 32697943). Promotes human coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 replication and monocyte inflammatory response (PubMed : 32697943).
