We investigated the interplay between hypoxia and proinflammatory mediators in the development of liver fibrosis, using human hepatocellular carcinoma Huh7 cells as a model. Treatment of Huh7 with DMOG or under hypoxia, induced HIF-1α protein levels and the expression of genes for pro-fibrotic (TGF-β1, PDGFC, PAI-1) and fibrosis (LOX, P4HA1, P4HB) markers. Knockdown of HIF-1α decreased the induction of PDGFC, LOX and P4HA1, showing the involvement of HIF-1 in their regulation. Interestingly, incubation of Huh7 cells under hypoxia did not cause activation of the NF-κΒ pathway. In contrast, inflammatory mediators such as tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) and lipopolysaccharides (LPS) activated the NF-κΒ pathway, but failed to increase HIF-1α protein levels. Moreover, TNFα had a weaker effect than hypoxia on the induction or did not induce pro-fibrotic and fibrosis markers, respectively, while LPS enhanced only the hypoxic induction of P4HB. In conclusion, the above findings suggest that hypoxia and HIF-1 play an important role in the development of fibrosis in hepatocellular carcinoma, which appears to be independent of the activation of the NF-κΒ pathway.</p>","PeriodicalId":73270,"journal":{"name":"Hypoxia (Auckland, N.Z.)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2147/HP.S235967","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37529724","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
