描述 | The response of mammalian cells to hypoxia is mediated by a family of transcription factors known as HIF (hypoxia-inducible factors). The subunits of HIF, HIF-1α and HIF-2α are structurally similar and can be degraded rapidly under normoxia. 2-Methoxyestradiol can inhibit HIF-1α and HIF-2α expression, as well as depolymerize microtubules. Treatment with 2-Methoxyestradiol (5 - 100 μM) for 16h can reduce expression of HIF-1α dose-dependently in PC-3 and MDA-MB-231 cells, accompanied with the reduced activity of HIF-1 and the expression of its target protein, VEGF, and without effect on HIF-1α mRNA levels or rate of protein degradation. Treatment with 2-Methoxyestradiol (10 - 100 μM) overnight can depolymerize microtubules and impair nuclear accumulation of HIF-1α in PC-3 cells under hypoxia. Daily oral administration of 2-Methoxyestradiol, 150 mg/kg, for 33 days suppressed tumor growth and angiogenesis, as well as depolymerized microtubules in breast cancer orthotopic models. The inhibition of HIF-2α expression and microtubule-depolymerization by 2-Methoxyestradiol can also be observed in endothelial cells[1]. | ||
作用机制 | 2-Methoxyestradiol inhibits the expression, nuclear accumulation and transcriptional activity of HIF-1α[1]. However, the accurate mechanism of action is unknown now. |
