- Nontransient hypoxia is strongly associated with malignant lesions, resulting in aggressive behavior and resistance to treatment. We present an analysis of mRNA and protein expression changes in neuroblastoma cell lines occurring upon the transition from normoxia to hypoxia. The correlation between mRNA and protein level changes was poor, although some known hypoxia-driven genes and proteins correlated well. We present previously undescribed membrane proteins expressed under hypoxic conditions that are candidates for evaluation as biomarkers.

- Low oxygen pressure (hypoxia) is a physiological condition that has been linked to tumor progression and increased malignancy in several cancer forms. Cells of the childhood neoplasm neuroblastoma respond to hypoxia by attaining a lower grade of differentiation, which clinically is associated with poor prognosis. Furthermore, expression of the hypoxia inducible factor-2alpha correlates to poor outcome in neuroblastoma patients. In this report we have by microarray analysis studied transcriptional changes in seven neuroblastoma cell lines subjected to long term hypoxia. We find the gene regulatory response to be highly dependent on cell line background, however, a set of genes was coherently regulated by hypoxia and these genes are correlated to known hypoxia-induced transcriptional profiles.

- Poorly oxygenated ( hypoxic) tumors are frequently more aggressive compared to corresponding tumors that are better oxygenated. Adaptation to hypoxia is primarily mediated by two closely related hypoxia inducible transcription factor complexes, HIF-1 and HIF-2, which become stabilized and activated at low oxygen levels. Whether HIF-1 and HIF-2 have different roles in tumorigenesis is an open question and an issue we discuss. With focus on HIF-2, we summarize reported phenotypical changes of HIF genetic models and HIF expression patterns during normal development, in adult non - malignant tissues and in tumors. We further address the much - discussed subject of target gene preferences between HIF-1 and HIF-2, given that both transcription factors bind to the same DNA motif. Finally, we also discuss the observations that the oxygen - sensitive HIF-2 alpha subunit is accumulated and active under non - hypoxic conditions as exemplified by HIF-2 alpha expressing tumor macrophages and neuroblastoma cells located in seemingly well - vascularized tumor regions and how this phenomenon is related to tumor aggressiveness.
