HIF-1 and tumour radiosensitivity

BJ Moeller, MW Dewhirst - British journal of cancer, 2006 - nature.com
Abstract Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) plays important roles in regulating
radiosensitivity, making it a potentially promising target for tumour radiosensitisation. Here …

Treatment regimen determines whether an HIF-1 inhibitor enhances or inhibits the effect of radiation therapy

H Harada, S Itasaka, Y Zhu, L Zeng, X Xie… - British journal of …, 2009 - nature.com
Abstract Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) has been reported to promote tumour
radioresistance; therefore, it is recognised as an excellent target during radiation therapy …

Cycling hypoxia and free radicals regulate angiogenesis and radiotherapy response

MW Dewhirst, Y Cao, B Moeller - Nature Reviews Cancer, 2008 - nature.com
Hypoxia and free radicals, such as reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, can alter the
function and/or activity of the transcription factor hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF1). Interplay …

Enhanced response to radiotherapy in tumours deficient in the function of hypoxia-inducible factor-1

KJ Williams, BA Telfer, D Xenaki, MR Sheridan… - Radiotherapy and …, 2005 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To test the hypothesis that deficiency in expression of the
transcription factor, HIF-1, renders tumours more radioresponsive than HIF-1 proficient …

Hypoxia and radiotherapy: opportunities for improved outcomes in cancer treatment

BJ Moeller, RA Richardson, MW Dewhirst - Cancer and Metastasis …, 2007 - Springer
A large body of clinical evidence exists to suggest that tumor hypoxia negatively impacts
radiotherapy. As a result, there has been longstanding active research into novel methods of …

The emerging role of hypoxia-inducible factor-2 involved in chemo/radioresistance in solid tumors

J Zhao, F Du, Y Luo, G Shen, F Zheng, B Xu - Cancer treatment reviews, 2015 - Elsevier
The hypoxic condition is a common feature that negatively impacts the efficacy of radio-and
chemotherapy in solid tumors. Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF-1, 2, 3) predominantly regulate …

How can we overcome tumor hypoxia in radiation therapy?

H Harada - Journal of radiation research, 2011 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Local recurrence and distant metastasis frequently occur after radiation therapy for cancer
and can be fatal. Evidence obtained from radiochemical and radiobiological studies has …

[HTML][HTML] HIF-1 signaling: A key orchestrator of cancer radioresistance

R Huang, PK Zhou - Radiation Medicine and Protection, 2020 - Elsevier
Hypoxia is a big roadblock for cancer radiotherapy, in which the hypoxia-inducible factor
(HIF-1) creates a microenvironment and cancer cells' intrinsic signaling networks conferring …

Pleiotropic effects of HIF-1 blockade on tumor radiosensitivity

BJ Moeller, MR Dreher, ZN Rabbani, T Schroeder… - Cancer cell, 2005 - cell.com
We have previously shown that radiation increases HIF-1 activity in tumors, causing
significant radioprotection of the tumor vasculature. The impact that HIF-1 activation has on …

Intermittent hypoxia furthers the rationale for hypoxia-inducible factor-1 targeting

MW Dewhirst - Cancer research, 2007 - AACR
Abstract Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) stabilization is a pivotal event in the response to
hypoxic stress. A study in the December 15, 2006 issue of Cancer Research shows that HIF …
