Hypoxia markers

Find the products you need to detect hypoxia using protein markers such as HIF-1a and BNIP3.

HIF-1a

Under hypoxia, HIF-1a is stabilized and moves into the nucleus, where it regulates transcription of genes whose protein products increase oxygen delivery or facilitate metabolic adaptation to hypoxia.

HIF-1a staining of HeLa cells.

HIF-1a staining of HeLa cells. Anti-HIF-1a antibody [EPR16897] (ab179483) was used at 1/50 dilution with goat anti-rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) secondary antibody. Cells were treated with 0.6 nM CoCl2 for 6 hours.

We recommend

HIF-1a transcription factor assay kit (ab133104)

Anti-HIF-1a antibody (ab179483)

Human SimpleStep ELISA® kit (ab171577)

Recombinant human HIF-1a protein (ab154478)

BNIP3

BNIP3 induction by HIF-1α under hypoxic conditions is involved in hypoxia-mediated autophagy, cell survival and tumor progression.

BNIP3 staining of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma tissue.

BNIP3 staining of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma tissue. Anti-BNIP3 mouse monoclonal antibody (ab10433) was used at 1/100 dilution and visualized by DAB.

We recommend

Anti-BNIP antibody [ANa40] (ab10433)

Human HIF-1a + BNIP3 hypoxia in cell ELISA kit (ab129733)

HIF-1a + BNIP3 hypoxia response human flow cytometry kit (ab126585)

PDK1

PDK1 (pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1) is downstream of HIF-1α and is induced under hypoxia. Expression during hypoxia channels glucose through glycolysis to maintain ATP production.

PDK1 staining of NIH/3T3 cells.

PDK1 staining of NIH/3T3 cells. Anti-mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1 antibody (ab202468) was used at a dilution of 1/1000 with goat anti-rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor 488) secondary antibody (ab150077). Cells were counterstained with DAPI (blue) and tubulin also stained (red).

We recommend

GLUT1

Expression of the GLUT1 glucose transporter is increased under hypoxic conditions, induced by HIF-1α3.
