Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of hypoxia and PI3K inhibition on angiogenic factors in A549 lung cancer cells. A549 cells were treated with the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 under normoxic and hypoxic conditions. Untreated cells were used as the control group and those treated by the inhibitor, as the suppression group. The cells were further divided based on normoxic or hypoxic conditions and named: Normoxic control group, normoxic suppression group, hypoxic control group and hypoxic suppression group. Expression levels of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α and AKT1 mRNA in all groups were determined by reverse transcriptase-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and concentrations of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), angiotensin II (ANG-II), transforming growth factor (TGF)-α/β1, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in the culture supernatant were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression levels of HIF-1α and AKT1 mRNA in the hypoxic control group were higher than those in the normoxic control group and the expression levels of HIF-1α and AKT1 mRNA in the hypoxic control group were higher than those in the hypoxic suppression group. Compared to the normoxic control and normoxi...Continue Reading
