Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 2 Alpha Is Essential for Hepatic Outgrowth and Functions via the Regulation of leg1 Transcription in the Zebrafish Embryo

Abstract: The liver plays a vital role in metabolism, detoxification, digestion, and the maintenance of homeostasis. During development, the vertebrate embryonic liver undergoes a series of morphogenic processes known as hepatogenesis. Hepatogenesis can be separated into three interrelated processes: endoderm specification, hepatoblast differentiation, and hepatic outgrowth. Throughout this process, signaling molecules and transcription factors initiate and regulate the coordination of cell proliferation, apoptosis, dif… Show more

“…Under hypoxic conditions, HIF‐1 mediates a metabolism shift from mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis by activating downstream metabolism factors, including pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1, lactate dehydrogenase, and pyruvate kinase M2 (21, 22). In addition, mammalian embryonic development occurs in a low‐oxygen environment (23), and HIFs are known to function in tissue formation and many developmental systems, such as angiogenesis and osteogenesis (24, 25), hematopoiesis (26), and hepatogenesis (27). Moreover, hypoxia response and HIF signaling may control innate and adaptive immunity by acting on immune cells in pathologic states (28).…”

“…HIF-1 was reported to mediate the expression of hundreds of genes, including those for vascular endothelial growth factors, glycolytic enzymes and glucose transporters (14,15). In addition, HIF-2 was identified to be involved in implementing the hypoxic (14,15).…”

“…HIF-1 was reported to mediate the expression of hundreds of genes, including those for vascular endothelial growth factors, glycolytic enzymes and glucose transporters (14,15). In addition, HIF-2 was identified to be involved in implementing the hypoxic (14,15). HIF-1β was reported to be able to form a heterodimer complex wither either HIF-1α or HIF-2α, both of which undergo oxygen-dependent degradation via the von Hippel-Lindau protein pathway (14,15).…”

“…Moreover, bHLH-PAS (Per-ARNT-Sim) factors, such as the hypoxia inducible factors (HIFs), participate in hepatic disease, regeneration, fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (Nath and Szabo, 2012). Hif2α (renamed as Epas1b) binds hypoxia response elements (HREs) and regulates hepatic outgrowth in zebrafish (Lin et al, 2014). The activity of bHLH factors can be regulated by the inhibitor of DNA binding (ID) family of proteins.…”
