107 12630823 Analysis of the promoter region of the AM gene has revealed that two transcription factors, nuclear factor for interleukin-6 expression (NF-IL6) and activator protein 2 (AP-2), participate in the regulation of AM gene expression.
108 12630823 It is surmised that NF-IL6 mediates inflammatory stimuli and AP-2 mediates signals of phospholipase C and protein kinase C activation.
109 12630823 In addition to these factors, hypoxia induces AM gene expression via the hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) binding site.
110 12667640 Adrenomedullin (AM) is a pluripotent hormone with structural similarities to calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), which is expressed by many tissues in the body and shows a remarkable range of effects mediated by paracrine/autocrine and possibly endocrine mechanisms.
111 12667640 Under these conditions, AM is upregulated through a hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1)-dependent pathway and acts as a potent angiogenic factor promoting neovascularization.

121 15201286 In streptozotocin mice, in both retina and liver, insulin receptor (IR) and insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-2 protein and tyrosine phosphorylation were increased by insulin, while IRS-1 protein and its phosphorylation were maintained.
122 15201286 By contrast, in ob/ob mice, there was marked down-regulation of IR, IRS-1, and IRS-2 protein and phosphorylation in liver; these were maintained or increased in retina.
123 15201286 On the other hand, protein levels and phosphorylation of PDK1 and Akt were decreased in retina of both mice.
124 15201286 Interestingly, phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and ERK1 were responsive to insulin in retina of both mice but were unresponsive in liver.
125 15201286 HIF-1alpha and vascular endothelial growth factor were increased and endothelial nitric-oxide synthase was decreased in retina.
126 15201286 These observations indicate that, in both insulin-resistant and insulin-deficient diabetic states, there are alterations in insulin signaling, such as impaired PDK/Akt responses and enhanced mitogen-activated protein kinases responses that could contribute to the retinopathy.
127 15277220 Insulin-like growth factor-I plays a pathogenetic role in diabetic retinopathy.
128 15277220 In the current study, the role of insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I in these processes was investigated.
129 15277220 We found that systemic inhibition of IGF-I signaling with a receptor-neutralizing antibody, or with inhibitors of PI-3 kinase (PI-3K), c-Jun kinase (JNK), or Akt, suppressed retinal Akt, JNK, HIF-1alpha, nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB, and AP-1 activity, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression, as well as intercellular adhesion molecule-1 levels, leukostasis, and blood-retinal barrier breakdown, in a relevant animal model.

151 15331549 Because hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1alpha is a transcriptional activator of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and is critical for initiating angiogenic responses to hypoxia, we investigated the expression of HIF-1alpha and VEGF in specimens of human heart tissue to elucidate the molecular responses to myocardial ischemia in diabetic patients during unstable angina.

155 15543094 The elevated levels of immunoglobulins, about 20% more muscle in the pulmonary arteries, increased airway smooth muscle cells, and increased fetal hemoglobin and erythropoietin are evidence of chronic hypoxia before death.
156 15543094 These proinflammatory cytokines down-regulate gene expression of major cytochrome P-450 and/or other enzymes with the specific effects on mRNA levels, protein expression, and enzyme activity, thus affecting metabolism of several endogenous lipophilic substances, such as steroids, lipid-soluble vitamins, prostaglandins, leukotrienes, thromboxanes, and exogenous substances.
157 15543094 PEPCK deficit found in SIDS infants (caused also by vitamin A deficiency) and eventually enhanced by PACAP lipolysis of adipocyte triglycerides resulted in an increased FA level in blood because of their impaired reesterification to triacylglycerol in adipocytes.
158 15543094 Pulmonary edema and petechial hemorrhages often present in SIDS victims may be the result of the vascular leak syndrome caused by IL-2 and IFN-alpha.
159 15543094 Chronic hypoxia with the release of proinflammatory mediators IL-1alpha, IL-1beta and IL-6, and overloading of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems due to the narrowing airways and small pulmonary arteries of these children could also contribute to the development of these abnormalities.
160 15543094 Moreover, chronic hypoxia of SIDS infants induced also production of hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha (HIF-1alpha), which stimulated synthesis and release of different growth factors by vascular endothelial cells and intensified subclinical inflammatory reactions in the central nervous system, perhaps potentiated also by PACAP and VIP gene mutations.
161 15561954 In this study, we show that in primary dermal fibroblasts and endothelial cells, hyperglycemia interferes with the function of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), a transcription factor that is essential for adaptive responses of the cell to hypoxia.
162 15663958 The increase in HIF-1alpha in diabetic nerves coincided with a similarly transient increase in the expression of several HIF-1alpha target genes including vascular endothelial growth factor, lactate dehydrogenase and erythropoietin, which subsided 8-10 weeks after induction of diabetes.

214 16427606 Hypoxia dysregulates the production of adiponectin and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 independent of reactive oxygen species in adipocytes.
215 16427606 Low plasma levels of adiponectin (hypoadiponectinemia) and elevated circulating concentrations of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1 are causally associated with obesity-related insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease.
216 16427606 In this study, we investigated the effects of hypoxia and reactive oxygen species (ROS) on production of adiponectin and PAI-1 in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
217 16427606 Quantitative PCR and immunoassays showed that ambient hypoxia markedly suppressed adiponectin mRNA expression and its protein secretion, and increased PAI-1 production in mature adipocytes.
218 16427606 However, ablation of intracellular ROS by antioxidants failed to alleviate hypoxia-induced aberrant production of adiponectin and PAI-1.
219 16427606 On the other hand, the antioxidants could reverse hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced dysregulation of adiponectin and PAI-1 production.
220 16427606 H2O2 treatment decreased the expression levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) and CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBPalpha), but had no effect on HIF-1alpha, whereas hypoxia stabilized HIF-1alpha and decreased expression of C/EBPalpha, but not PPARgamma.
221 16427606 Taken together, these data suggest that hypoxia and ROS decrease adiponectin production and augment PAI-1 expression in adipocytes via distinct signaling pathways.
222 17003339 In db/db mice at the normoalbuminuric stage, hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha), ephrin B2, glomerular epithelial protein 1, and Pod-1, which play key roles in glomerulogenesis, were already upregulated in parallel with an alteration of genes related to glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism, and oxidative stress.
223 17003339 Through pioglitazone treatment, gene expression of ephrin B2, Pod-1, actinin 4alpha, and DG1, as well as that of oxidative stress and lipid metabolism, was restored concomitant with attenuation of albuminuria.
224 17049056 Insulin secretion decreased on POD 3 in association with a significant increase of HIF-1alpha-related beta-cell death, which can be suppressed by short-term hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
225 17049056 In contrast, improvement of nerve growth factor and duodenal homeobox factor-1 (PDx-1) production resulted in islet graft recovery and remodeling.
226 17049056 In addition, significant activation of vascular endothelial growth factor in islet grafts on POD 7 correlated with development of massive newly formed microvessels, whose maturation is advanced on POD 14 with gradual diminution of HIF-1alpha.
227 17049056 We conclude that (1) transplanted islets strongly express HIF-1alpha in association with beta-cell death and decreased insulin production until adequate revascularization is established and (2) early suppression of HIF-1alpha results in less beta-cell death thereby minimizing early graft failure.

237 17168853 The role of growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor and somatostatin in diabetic retinopathy.
238 17168853 Growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) are implicated in the aberrant cell growth and pathological neovascularization that characterises proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
239 17168853 IGF-I may exert its cell growth promoting properties by stimulating a number of pathways including protein-kinase B (Akt), nuclear factor kB (NF-kappaB)/AP-1 and hypoxic-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha).
240 17168853 In addition, other growth factors may participate in IGF-I induced cell growth including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) and fibroblast growth factor (FGF).
241 17168853 GH receptor antagonists, GH receptor antisense oligonucleotides, somatostatin analogues and receptor neutralising antibodies to IGF-I reduce hypoxic-induced retinal neovascularization.

266 17971009 Hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (Hif-1alpha), the regulatory subunit of the Hif-1 transcription factor, plays an important role in activating many of these genes.
267 17971009 Therefore, we tested whether Hif-1alpha function is impaired in the diabetic wound environment and whether restoring Hif-1 function improves wound healing.
268 17971009 Here, we show that Hif-1alpha protein levels are dramatically reduced in wounds of leptin receptor-deficient diabetic mice compared with nondiabetic littermates.

351 18322021 Previously, we have reported that pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) ameliorates albuminuria and inhibits matrix protein deposition in the kidney of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats, suggesting a renoprotective effect of PEDF in early stages of diabetic nephropathy.
352 18322021 Three wk after the injection, diabetic rats treated with the control virus showed significantly elevated renal levels of proinflammatory factors such as ICAM-1, MCP-1, TNF-alpha, and VEGF compared with age-matched nondiabetic controls.
353 18322021 In cultured primary human renal mesangial cells (HMC), the high-glucose medium-induced upregulation of VEGF and MCP-1 was largely blocked by PEDF.

493 20063187 We investigated expression of VEGF, pKDR, FGF2, HIF1alpha and HIF2alpha and only VEGF gave a strong positive reaction in the adenoma cells entrapped in the vascular meshwork.
494 20063187 Although this does not constitute a proof that aberrant VEGF production was a causative agent, unexpected supportive evidence for its pathogenic role emerged from a failure to detect chromogranin A.
495 20063187 Chromogranin A is a precursor of several regulatory proteins, including vasostatin I, a multilevel suppressor of VEGF.
496 20063187 The production of vasostatin I may have been reduced in a chromogranin A-negative adenoma which could lead to a loss of its opposing effect on VEGF-regulated processes.

503 20562294 Methylglyoxal-induced imbalance in the ratio of vascular endothelial growth factor to angiopoietin 2 secreted by retinal pigment epithelial cells leads to endothelial dysfunction.
504 20562294 In this study, we hypothesize that increased levels of MGO disrupt the ratio of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) to angiopoietin 2 (Ang 2) secreted by retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells, which provides a key destabilizing signal that leads to apoptosis and decreased proliferation of retinal endothelial cells.
505 20562294 Downregulation of VEGF is likely to be related to decreased hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) protein levels and HIF-1 transcriptional activity.

550 20814070 The aim of the present study was: 1) to compare the effects of treatment with PPARg ligand (pioglitazone) on healing of acetic acid-induced gastric ulcers and prevention of acute water immersion and restraint stress (WRS)-induced gastric lesions in normal rats and those with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes mellitus; 2) to assess the effects of pioglitazone on the mRNA expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), c-NOS, interleukin-1beta and hypoxia inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1alpha) in the gastric mucosa of rats with or without STZ-induced diabetes mellitus; 3) to investigate the involvement of endogenous NO and proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1beta, TNF-alpha) in healing of chronic gastric ulcers and in prevention of acute stress lesions by pioglitazone in rats with or without STZ-induced diabetes mellitus.
551 20814070 In rats with chronic ulcers, the mRNA expression of HIF-1alpha, IL-1beta and COX-2 was assessed by RT-PCR and protein expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1), COX-2 and cNOS was examined by Western blot.
552 20814070 In rats with stress lesions, the protein expression of COX-2, cNOS, catalase, PPAR and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) was examined by Western blot.
553 20814070 Interestingly, the ulcer healing and gastroprotective effects of pioglitazone were weak under diabetic conditions, and this effect on ulcer healing was accompanied by impaired angiogenesis due to decreased PECAM-1 expression, attenuated expression of COX-2 and the increased expression of proinflammatory cytokines compared to those in diabetic rats treated with vehicle.
554 20814070 We conclude that: 1) experimental diabetes in rats impairs healing of chronic ulcers and enhances acute stress lesions due to an increase in the expression and release of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-alpha and IL-1beta; 2) the ulcer healing effect of pioglitazone, which is, at least in part, mediated by endogenous NO, is significantly attenuated by L-NNA in diabetic rats despite increased COX-2 expression at the ulcer edge; 3) the formation of acute gastric lesions induced by WRS is also attenuated by pretreatment with pioglitazone due to increased GBF probably mediated by NO, as the administration of L-NNA reversed, in part, the preventive action induced by this PPARgamma ligand, and 4) pioglitazone is effective both in healing of chronic ulcers and protection against WRS lesions though its action under diabetic conditions seems to be attenuated, possibly due to reduction in NOS-NO system, angiogenesis and increased expression and release of proinflammatory cytokines.

559 20814070 We conclude that: 1) experimental diabetes in rats impairs healing of chronic ulcers and enhances acute stress lesions due to an increase in the expression and release of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-alpha and IL-1beta; 2) the ulcer healing effect of pioglitazone, which is, at least in part, mediated by endogenous NO, is significantly attenuated by L-NNA in diabetic rats despite increased COX-2 expression at the ulcer edge; 3) the formation of acute gastric lesions induced by WRS is also attenuated by pretreatment with pioglitazone due to increased GBF probably mediated by NO, as the administration of L-NNA reversed, in part, the preventive action induced by this PPARgamma ligand, and 4) pioglitazone is effective both in healing of chronic ulcers and protection against WRS lesions though its action under diabetic conditions seems to be attenuated, possibly due to reduction in NOS-NO system, angiogenesis and increased expression and release of proinflammatory cytokines.

564 21329734 Visfatin induced the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in human endothelial cells.
565 21329734 The visfatin-induced increase in VEGF expression was also eliminated by RNA interference-mediated knockdown of the 70-kDa ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p70S6K), a downstream target of mTOR.
566 21329734 Taken together, these results indicate that mTOR signaling is involved in visfatin-induced angiogenesis, and that this signaling leads to visfatin-induced VEGF expression and nuclear translocation of β-catenin.
567 21376466 Surprisingly, hypoxia was found to be a more effective determinant than high glucose, and hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) seemed to be involved.

569 21435171 Furthermore, it was found that ASCs not only augmented the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) in flap tissues from dermis of diabetes mice, but also promoted their expression in dermal fibroblasts from diabetic mice.

711 23144758 In this study we examined the role of NADPH oxidase subunit 4 (Nox4) in insulin-stimulated HIF-1α and VEGF expression, and angiogenic responses in human microvascular endothelial cells (HMVECs).
712 23144758 Here we demonstrate that knockdown of Nox4 by siRNA reduced insulin-stimulated ROS generation, the tyrosine phosphorylation of IR-β and IRS-1, but did not change the serine phosphorylation of IRS-1.
713 23144758 Nox4 gene silencing had a much greater inhibitory effect on insulin-induced AKT activation than ERK1/2 activation, whereas it had little effect on the expression of the phosphatases such as MKP-1 and SHIP.
714 23144758 Inhibition of Nox4 expression inhibited the transcriptional activity of VEGF through HIF-1.
715 23144758 Overexpression of wild-type Nox4 was sufficient to increase VEGF transcriptional activity, and further enhanced insulin-stimulated the activation of VEGF.
716 23144758 Downregulation of Nox4 expression decreased insulin-stimulated mRNA and protein expression of HIF-1α, but did not change the rate of HIF-1α degradation.
717 23144758 Inhibition of Nox4 impaired insulin-stimulated VEGF expression, cell migration, cell proliferation, and tube formation in HMVECs.
718 23144758 Our data indicate that Nox4-derived ROS are essential for HIF-1α-dependent VEGF expression, and angiogenesis in vitro induced by insulin.
719 23144758 Nox4 may be an attractive therapeutic target for diabetic retinopathy caused by intensive insulin treatment.
720 23209723 Zinc transporter 8 (ZnT8) expression is reduced by ischemic insults: a potential therapeutic target to prevent ischemic retinopathy.
721 23209723 The zinc (Zn(++)) transporter ZnT8 plays a crucial role in zinc homeostasis.
722 23209723 It's been reported that an acute decrease in ZnT8 levels impairs β cell function and Zn(++) homeostasis, which contribute to the pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus (DM).
723 23209723 Although ZnT8 expression has been detected in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), its expression profile in the retina has yet to be determined.
724 23209723 Our aims were to; investigate the expression profile of ZnT8 in the retina; address the influence of ischemia on such expression; and evaluate the influence of YC-1; (3-(50-hydroxymethyl-20-furyl)-1-benzyl indazole), a hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) inhibitor, on the status of ZnT8 expression.
725 23209723 We used real-time RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry, and Western blot in the mouse model of oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) and Müller cells to evaluate the effects of ischemia/hypoxia and YC-1 on ZnT8 expression.
726 23209723 Our data indicate that ZnT8 was strongly expressed in the outer nuclear layer (ONL), outer plexiform layer (OPL), ganglion cell layer (GCL), and nerve fiber layer (NFL), whereas the photoreceptor layer (PRL), inner nuclear layer (INL) and inner plexiform layer (IPL) showed moderate ZnT8 immunoreactivity.
727 23209723 Furthermore, we demonstrate that retinal ischemic insult induces a significant downregulation of ZnT8 at the message and protein levels, YC-1 rescues the injured retina by restoring the ZnT8 to its basal homeostatic levels in the neovascular retinas.
728 23209723 Our data indicate that ischemic retinopathy maybe mediated by aberrant Zn(++) homeostasis caused by ZnT8 downregulation, whereas YC-1 plays a neuroprotective role against ischemic insult.
729 23209723 Therefore, targeting ZnT8 provides a therapeutic strategy to combat neovascular eye diseases.
730 23252631 Endothelial progenitor cells derived from Wharton's jelly of the umbilical cord reduces ischemia-induced hind limb injury in diabetic mice by inducing HIF-1α/IL-8 expression.

761 23512810 Of the two transcription factors activated by hypoxia, the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) enhanced but the hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) reduced 11β-HSD1 expression. 11β-HSD1 expression was elevated by NF-κB in epididymal fat of aP2-p65 mice.
762 23512810 The hypoxia-induced 11β-HSD1 expression was attenuated by NF-κB inactivation in p65-deficient cells but enhanced by HIF-1 inactivation in HIF-1α-null cells.

770 23567972 Clock-controlled output gene Dbp is a regulator of Arnt/Hif-1β gene expression in pancreatic islet β-cells.
771 23567972 Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT)/hypoxia inducible factor-1β (HIF-1β) has emerged as a potential determinant of pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and type 2 diabetes in humans.
772 23567972 Meanwhile, disruption of the clock components CLOCK and BMAL1 is known to result in hypoinsulinemia and diabetes, but the molecular details remain unclear.
773 23567972 In this study, we identified a novel molecular connection between Arnt and two clock-controlled output genes, albumin D-element binding protein (Dbp) and E4 binding protein 4 (E4bp4).
774 23567972 Dbp mRNA decreased by 50%, E4bp4 mRNA increased by 50%, and Arnt mRNA decreased by 30% at Zeitgever Time (ZT) 12.
775 23567972 E4BP4, a D-box negative regulator, oscillated anti-phase to DBP, a D-box positive regulator.
776 23567972 Over-expression of DBP raised both mRNA and protein levels of ARNT in HEK293 and MIN6 cell lines.
777 23567972 Arnt promoter-driven luciferase reporter assay in MIN6 cells revealed that DBP increased Arnt promoter activity by 2.5-fold and that E4BP4 competitively inhibited its activation.
778 23567972 In addition, on ChIP assay, DBP and E4BP4 directly bound to D-box elements within the Arnt promoter in MIN6 cells.
779 23567972 These results suggest that in mouse pancreatic islets mRNA expression of Arnt fluctuates significantly in a circadian manner and that the down-regulation of Dbp and up-regulation E4bp4 contribute to direct suppression of Arnt expression in diabetes.

815 23786956 Chronic intermittent hypoxia increases β cell mass and activates the mammalian target of rapamycin/hypoxia inducible factor 1/vascular endothelial growth factor A pathway in mice pancreatic islet.
816 23798679 There is also evidence that metabolites such as NAD(+) (acting via deacetylases such as SIRT1 and SIRT2) and succinate (which regulates hypoxia-inducible factor 1α) are signals that regulate innate immunity.
817 23810809 Immunofluorescence staining, ELISA and RT-PCR were used to examine the expression levels of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and VEGF in retina and endothelial cells.
818 23810809 The relative levels of VEGF expression and HIF-1α induction were also less in retinas of LMWF- or calcium dobesilate-treated diabetic mice than those in retinas of control mice.
819 23810809 Therefore, this study demonstrated that LMWF alleviates diabetic retinal neovascularization and damage likely through lowering HIF-1α and VEGF expressions, providing a potential candidate drug for prevention and treatment of diabetic retinopathy.
820 23859619 Although AMPK activation inhibits tumor growth by targeting multiple signaling pathways relevant to tumorigenesis, under certain cellular contexts or certain stages of tumor development, AMPK might act as a protective response to metabolic stresses, such as nutrient deprivation, low oxygen, and low pH, or as downstream effectors of oncogenic proteins, including androgen receptor, hypoxia-inducible factor-1α, c-Src, and MYC.

864 23984430 Herein we evaluate the outcome of lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) induced AKI in streptozotocin-induced diabetes, as well as the potential role of Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF-1 α ) in this condition.
865 23984430 Both HIF-1 α and vascular endothelium growth factor (VEGF) were found to be upregulated in diabetic mice.
866 23984430 Glycated albumin (GA) was found to upregulate HIF-1 α in HK-2 cells, which resulted in increased production of VEGF.
867 23984430 Interestingly, LPS cooperated with GA to induce HIF-1 α upregulation.
868 23984430 Moreover, these animals showed an increased expression of both HIF-1 α and VEGF that was reproduced by incubating renal cells with GA.
869 23984430 Since VEGF is considered a survival factor for tubular cells, our findings suggest that diabetes displays HIF-1 α upregulation that might function as a "precondition state" offering protection from endotoxic AKI.
870 23984430 Herein we evaluate the outcome of lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) induced AKI in streptozotocin-induced diabetes, as well as the potential role of Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF-1 α ) in this condition.
871 23984430 Both HIF-1 α and vascular endothelium growth factor (VEGF) were found to be upregulated in diabetic mice.
872 23984430 Glycated albumin (GA) was found to upregulate HIF-1 α in HK-2 cells, which resulted in increased production of VEGF.
