Regulation of Hypoxia Inducible Factors (HIF) in Hypoxia and Normoxia During Placental Development

Patel, J., Landers, K., Mortimer, R.H., Richard, K.·2010·Placenta

Abstract

During the first trimester of pregnancy the human placenta develops in an hypoxic environment caused by the occlusion of uterine spiral arterioles by extravillous trophoblasts (EVT). This period of low oxygen tension is crucial for successful pregnancy. In low oxygen environments, Hypoxia Inducible Factors (HIF) are the main regulators in the transcription of a number of genes. Target genes can induce anaerobic processes, reducing oxygen consumption, or promote angiogenesis, which establishes and enhances the vascular environment. The HIFs can function throughout all stages of placental differentiation and growth both in normal and pathological pregnancies (compromised by hypoxia/ischemia). Interestingly, HIFs respond to a multitude of changes during pregnancy, including 1) low oxygen, 2) renin-angiotensin system (RAS), 3) cytokines, and 4) growth factors, all of which regulate placental function. This review explores oxygen-dependent and oxygen-independent regulation and the role of HIF in placental development and differentiation.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • HIFs can be stabilized by factors other than hypoxia, including reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, angiotensin, growth factors and cytokines.

    “Interpretation of these data is difficult given that it is now realized that HIFs can be stabilized by factors other than hypoxia, including reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, angiotensin, growth factors and cytokines (433, 444), many of which are changing during early pregnancy.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
