HIF1A knockdown in medulloblastoma cells lead to decreased cellular proliferation, suggesting that HIF1A can be a potential therapeutic target to be explored in the medulloblastoma. However, the mechanisms behind HIF1A protein stabilization and function are very complex and more data need to be generated to potentially use HIF1A as a therapeutical target.
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.
