Interactions of Hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)‐1α and Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor (PPAR) α in the protection against ischemia/reperfusion injury in the rat kidney
Abstract:In response to reduced oxygen availability, important cellular and molecular adaptive changes occur in living organisms. Hypoxia‐inducible factor (HIF) is a major adaptive mechanism and prolyl hydroxylase‐binding domain proteins (PHD) is its most important negative regulator. However, peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor (PPARα), a nuclear transcription factor is activated in response to hypoxia/HIF‐1α and regulates many of the downstream target genes. This study tested the hypothesis that inhibition of … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
