PHD2 in tumour angiogenesis

Abstract: Originally identified as the enzymes responsible for catalysing the oxidation of specific, conserved proline residues within hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), the additional roles for the prolyl hydroxylase domain (PHD) proteins have remained elusive. Of the four identified PHD enzymes, PHD2 is considered to be the key oxygen sensor, as knockdown of PHD2 results in elevated HIF protein. Several recent studies have highlighted the importance of PHD2 in tumourigenesis. However, there is conflicting evidence … Show more

“…The PHDs family include PHD1, PHD2 and PHD3. PHD2 is believed to be a key oxygen sensor that hydroxylates HIF‐1α and promotes its degradation 36, 37. OH‐HIF‐1α levels were markedly decreased in PQ group.…”

“…How PHD2 can be downregulated in some tumours whilst acting as an oncogene in others [40] remains unclear [41]. Mutations in PHD2 associated with increased risk of tumours have been reported [42] and epigenetic silencing has been proposed for PHD3 [43].…”

“…Under hypoxic conditions, the α -subunit does not get hydroxylated. Thus, the α -subunit accumulates and forms the functional heterodimer with the β -subunit, which then translocates into the nucleus to activate the transcription of genes with HIF-1 response element (HRE) (Chan and Giaccia , 2010 ). Garayoa et al (2000) discovered several HREs in the human AM promoter, and went further to demonstrate HIF-1-mediated up-regulation of AM under hypoxic conditions (Figure 2 ).…”

“…HIF-1 is a heterodimeric transcription factor that consists of a β -subunit and an oxygen-sensitive α -subunit (Chan and Giaccia , 2010 ). Under normoxic conditions, the α -subunit becomes hydroxylated on two conserved proline residues by prolyl hydroxylases.…”
