Abstract

Hypoxia can regulate oxygen-sensitive pathways that could be neuroprotective to compensate for the detrimental effects of low oxygen. However, prolonged hypoxia can activate neurodegenerative pathways. HIF-1α is upregulated/stabilized in hypoxic conditions, promoting alteration of gene expression, and ultimately leading to cell-death. Therefore, regulation of HIF-1α expression pharmacologically is a vital approach to mitigate cell death. In this review, we provide information showing the role of HIF-1α and its associated pathways in ocular retinopathies. We also discuss the beneficial roles of HIF-1α inhibitor, KC7F2, in ocular pathologies. Finally, we provided our own data demonstrating RGC neuroprotection by KC7F2 in glaucomatous animals.

对 HIF-1α、RGC 死亡和青光眼的药理调节
缺氧可以调节对氧敏感的途径,从而起到保护神经的作用,弥补低氧的有害影响。然而,长期缺氧会激活神经退行性病变途径。HIF-1α 在缺氧条件下上调/稳定,促进基因表达的改变,最终导致细胞死亡。因此,通过药物调节 HIF-1α 的表达是缓解细胞死亡的重要方法。在这篇综述中,我们提供的信息显示了 HIF-1α 及其相关通路在眼部视网膜病变中的作用。我们还讨论了 HIF-1α 抑制剂 KC7F2 在眼部病变中的有益作用。最后,我们提供了自己的数据,证明了 KC7F2 对青光眼动物 RGC 神经的保护作用。
