We and others have previously shown that glomerular endothelial cells and podocytes express hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIFs). HIFs bind to hypoxia response elements in target genes, such as vascular endothelial growth factor, which is continually produced by podocytes throughout life....

The von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor functions as a ubiquitin ligase that mediates proteolytic inactivation of hydroxylated a subunits of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF). Although studies of VHL defective renal carcinoma cells suggest the existence of other VHL tumor suppressor pathways, dysr...

VHL is a tumor suppressor gene involved in the oxygen-sensing pathway whose germline mutations predispose to distinct phenotypes. Heterozygous mutations predispose to von Hippel-Lindau disease characterized by the development of multiple tumors (including hemangioblastomas, renal cell carcinomas and...

The effects of constitutively active Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF) and inactivated von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor gene product (pVHL) were examined in a mouse model. Conditionally expressed, constitutively active HIF-1a and HIF-2a were compared with inactivated pVHL.

Renal hypoxia is widespread in acute kidney injury (AKI) of various aetiologies. Hypoxia adaptation, conferred through the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), appears to be insufficient. Here we show that HIF activation in renal tubules through Pax8-rtTA-based inducible knockout of von Hippel-Lindau pro...

Multi-region whole exome sequencing of tumours from patients with Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome reveals convergence of mutayional events upon the PI3L-AKT-mTOR signalling pathway.
Gene expression data from VHL teratomas comparing genes differentially expressed based on apoptotic response to tumor microenvironment. Abstract BACKGROUND: The risk relevance of the P81S von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene hotspot mutation identified in clear cell renal cell carcinoma from individuals ex...

The human renal cancer cell line 786-0 was transfected with 3 vectors allowing the doxycycline-inducible expression of 1) the full length wild type sequence of VHL: 786-0 VHL WT, VHL+/+, 2) the R167Q mutant : 786-0 R167Q, VHL mutated, 3) the empty vector : 786-0 EV, VHL-/-. The aim of the study was ...

Recent insights into the role of the VHL tumor suppressor gene in hereditary and sporadic clear cell carcinoma of the kidney (ccRCC) have led to new treatments for patients with metastatic ccRCC, although virtually all patients eventually succumb to the disease. We performed an integrated, genome-wi...

The cellular response to low oxygen supply is mediated by hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF). Under hypoxic conditions, HIF is stabilized and target genes are induced. Under normoxia, however, HIF is ubiquitinated through the von Hippel-Lindau protein (VHL), which results in proteasomal degradation. HI...
