主 题:Breast neoplasms hypoxia-induced factor 1 HIF-1α
摘 要:Breast cancer usually grows very quickly,becoming insensitive to blood flow in nearby veins;because of that,inside solid tumors it s possible to find a hypoxic environment,in other words,an environment where oxygen is less *** feature of cancer is its angiogenesis rate,because of the high energy demand,new blood vessels must be produced to take nutrients inside the solid tumor *** with normal blood flow bringing the cancer oxygen and nutrients,its cells favor hypoxia,in an event known as Warburg *** to the Warburg Effect,cells,even with normal oxygen rates,prefer to use fermentation instead of the citric acid cycle to produce *** the cancer to operate normally in hypoxia,a transcription factor family is activated,known as hypoxia-induced factors(HIF),composed of a HIF-1βand a HIF-1α*** HIF-1αis expressed during hypoxia,it is a great target for treatments and a breast cancer *** of the role of HIF-1αin cancer and the high incidence of breast cancer worlwide,this review was performed in order to bring the most recent results concerning the role HIF-1αcan exert in breast cancer development and progression.
