## Abstract The hypoxia inducible factor‐1α (HIF‐1α) has been found to be involved in several different physiological mechanisms, such as blood‐vessel formation, apoptosis, and erythropoiesis. HIF‐1α is hydroxylated at normoxia and rapidly degraded via the von Hippel–Lindau (VHL)/ubiquitin‐proteaso

## Abstract With an incidence of about 300 000 new cases colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer‐related death in Europe and the United States. Environmental and genetic factors influence CRC risk. Hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1 (HIF‐1), a heterodimeric protein composed of two sub
## Abstract HIF‐1 is reported to transactivate expression of VEGF, which is an important angiogenic factor. To determine whether HIF‐1α plays a role in angiogenesis through its regulation of VEGF, we examined expression of HIF‐1α and its relation to clinicopathologic features, VEGF expression and p
## Background: Hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha (hif-1alpha) and hif-2alpha are essential regulatory proteins for the adaptation of tumor cells to hypoxia, and they stimulate angiogenesis through activation of the vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) gene. ## Methods: Hif-1alpha and hif-2alph
