Hypoxia signalling in cancer and approaches to enforce tumour regression

Pouysségur, Jacques, Dayan, Frédéric, Mazure, Nathalie M.·2006·Nature

Abstract

Tumour cells emerge as a result of genetic alteration of signal circuitries promoting cell growth and survival, whereas their expansion relies on nutrient supply. Oxygen limitation is central in controlling neovascularization, glucose metabolism, survival and tumour spread. This pleiotropic action is orchestrated by hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), which is a master transcriptional factor in nutrient stress signalling. Understanding the role of HIF in intracellular pH (pH(i)) regulation, metabolism, cell invasion, autophagy and cell death is crucial for developing novel anticancer therapies. There are new approaches to enforce necrotic cell death and tumour regression by targeting tumour metabolism and pH(i)-control systems.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

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

  • FIH-1 has a higher affinity for oxygen than PHDs, so PHDs are thought to be more rapidly inhibited in low oxygen conditions.

    “The affinity of PHDs and FIH-1 for oxygen differs and, since FIH-1 has a higher affinity (lower K m ) for oxygen, PHDs are thought to be more rapidly inhibited in low oxygen conditions (Pouyssegur et al., 2006).”

  • Low O2 tension in solid tumors has profound effects on tumor metabolism.

  • O2 tension in the center of solid tumors may be so low that cells essentially become anoxic.

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.
