Transcriptional Regulation of the Rat Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Gene by Hypoxia
Open accessAbstract
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a potent angiogenic factor and endothelial cell-specific mitogen, is up-regulated by hypoxia. However, the mechanism(s) responsible for hypoxic induction of VEGF has not been clearly delineated. We report that the steady state VEGF mRNA levels are increased 12 +/- 0.6-fold, but the transcriptional rate for VEGF is increased only 3.1 +/- 0.6-fold by hypoxia in PC12 cells. In order to investigate cis-regulatory sequences which mediate this response to hypoxia, we cloned the rat genomic sequences encoding VEGF and identified a 28-base pair element in the 5' promoter that mediates hypoxia-inducible transcription in transient expression assays. This element has sequence and protein binding similarities to the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 binding site within the erythropoietin 3' enhancer. Post-transcriptional mechanisms have also been suggested to play a role in the hypoxic induction of VEGF. Evidence is provided that a frequently used polyadenylation site is 1.9 kilobases downstream from the translation termination codon for rat VEGF. This site is 1.5 kilobases further downstream from the polyadenylation site previously reported for VEGF. This new finding reveals sequence motifs in the 3'-untranslated region that may mediate VEGF mRNA stability.

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.
