Abstract | BACKGROUND: DESIGN AND METHODS: RESULTS:
all-trans retinoic acid rapidly increased endogenous and inducible expressed or CoCl(2)-stabilized HIF-1 alpha protein in leukemic cells under normoxia. Importantly, suppression of HIF-1 alpha expression by specific short hairpin RNA partially but significantly inhibited all-trans retinoic acid-induced differentiation of the U937 cell line. Reciprocally, the differentiation induced by all-trans retinoic acid was significantly enhanced by conditional HIF-1 alpha induction and HIF-1 alpha-stabilizing CoCl(2) treatment. Furthermore, knock-down of PU.1, Runx1 and C/EBP alpha, three transcriptional factors crucial for normal hematopoiesis, greatly inhibited the differentiation cooperation of all-trans retinoic acid and HIF-1 alpha induction.
