Response to hypoxia decreases the amount of MYSM1. 1 / 1

"Upon hypoxia, the expression of HIF-1alpha and VEGF gene was induced. The result of Western blotting showed that the expression of alpha-SMA was increased by hypoxic stimulation. Furthermore, the expression of MMP-2 and TIMP-1 genes was increased. Hypoxia also elevated the protein expression of the collagen type I in LX-2 cells. The analysis of TGF-beta/Smad signaling pathway showed that hypoxia potentiated the expression of TGF-beta1 and the phosphorylation status of Smad2. See Table 2 for results of microarray experiment."
