CUI: C0007134
Disease: Renal Cell Carcinoma
Renal Cell Carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Our findings suggest that hypericin may potentially be useful in preventing growth of tumors in which HIF-1α plays pivotal roles, and in pVHL ablated tumor cells such as renal cell carcinoma through elimination of elevated HIF-1α contents in these cells, scaling down the excessive angiogenesis which characterizes these tumors. 21949677 2011
CUI: C0007134
Disease: Renal Cell Carcinoma
Renal Cell Carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Wild-type HIF1α suppresses renal carcinoma growth, but the products of these altered loci do not. 22037472 2011
CUI: C0007134
Disease: Renal Cell Carcinoma
Renal Cell Carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Our findings establish that activated HIF1α in murine kidney PT cells is sufficient to promote cell proliferation, angiogenesis, genomic instability, and other phenotypic alterations characteristic of human VHL kidney disease, establishing the TRACK mouse as a valid preclinical model of human renal cell carcinoma. 21908555 2011
CUI: C0007134
