Differential Impact of Intermittent vs. Sustained Hypoxia on HIF-1, VEGF and Proliferation of HepG2 Cells

Abstract: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an emerging risk factor for cancer occurrence and progression, mainly mediated by intermittent hypoxia (IH). Systemic IH, a main landmark of OSA, and local sustained hypoxia (SH), a classical feature at the core of tumors, may act separately or synergistically on tumor cells. Our aim was to compare the respective consequences of intermittent and sustained hypoxia on HIF-1, endothelin-1 and VEGF expression and on cell proliferation and migration in HepG2 liver tumor cells.

“…Apnoea groups presented higher levels of MMP-1 at baseline, which decreased significantly after one year of SDB treatment. MMP-1 is a profibrotic metalloproteinase related to hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) [35], which is increased in intermittent hypoxia, but not in sustained hypoxia [36]. Furthermore, OSA and CSA present certain differences.…”
