摘要
缺氧诱导因子-1(hypoxia inducible factor-1,HIF-1)是一种异源二聚体转录因子,由结构表达型β亚基和氧调节型α亚基组成。在低氧环境下,HIF-1调控一系列促进细胞成活的基因,这些基因涉及血管生成、铁代谢、葡萄糖代谢和细胞增殖与存活。α亚基主要受到诸如乙酰化、羟基化、磷酸化和相扑化等转录后修饰,这些修饰可以稳定或激活HIF-1的活性。除氧环境外,胞内氧化还原稳态、铁代谢、线粒体代谢物和生长因子还可通过影响转录后修饰进而调节HIF-1的活性。此外,近来的研究表明HIF-1在病原学方面也发挥重要作用,在中风和神经退行性疾病这样的脑紊乱疾病中提供潜在神经保护作用。本文总结了HIF-1研究的最新进展,谨以此文献给忻文娟教授80周年诞辰。
Hypoxia inducible factor-1(HIF-1),a transcriptional factor,is a heterodimer consisting of a constitutively expressed β subunit and an oxygen-regulated α subunit.It regulates a series of genes that participate in angiogenesis,iron metabolism,glucose metabolism,and cell proliferation/survival,which promote cell survival under hypoxic conditions.The α subunit is subjected to posttranslational modifications,such as acetylation,hydroxylation,phosphorylation,and sumoylation.These modifications determine the stabilization and activity of HIF-1.Besides oxygen,cellular redox homeostasis,iron metabolism,mitochondrial metabolites,and growth factors affect the post-translational modification and thus regulate HIF-1 activity.Furthermore,recent studies have demonstrated that HIF-1 plays an important role in the pathogeneses of and provides potential neuroprotection in many brain disorders such as stroke and neurodegenerative diseases.This article summarizes recent progress on these issues and is dedicated to Professor Wenjuan Xin on the occasion of her 80th birthday.
