abstract：:Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is a decisive element for the transcriptional regulation of many genes expressed in hypoxic conditions. In vascular smooth muscle cells, the vasoactive hormone angiotensin II (Ang II) is a very potent inducer and activator of HIF-1. As opposed to hypoxia, which induces HIF-1alpha by ...
