Application
YC-1 has been used as a hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) inhibitor:
- to reduce hypoxia induced Jagged1 expression in cardiomyocytes (CMs)
- to study its effect on progenitor expansion and CD34+ and side population (SP) cell phenotype and on the proliferation rate of cells with an ability to form long term colony forming units
- to study its effect on regulating sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) bound to albumin induced plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) expression by activating Rho/ Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) pathway.
Biochem/physiol Actions
NO (nitric oxide)-independent activator of soluble guanylyl cyclase.
YC-1 activates soluble guanylyl cyclase and prevents platelet aggregation and vascular contraction. It has a potential to treat circulation disorders. YC-1 also has an ability to inhibit hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) activity in vitro. It acts as a potential antiangiogenic anticancer agent.

The glycolytic response of hypoxic cells is primarily mediated by the hypoxia inducible factor alpha (HIF-1α) but even in the presence of abundant oxygen tumours typically show high rates of glycolysis. Higher levels of HIF-1α in tumours are associated with

The mechanism of rapid growth of the residual tumor after radiofrequency (RF) ablation is poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the effect of hyperthermia on HepG2 cells and generated a subline with enhanced viability and dys-regulated angiogenesis in vivo

This study aimed to establish a therapeutic strategy targeting hypoxic cancer cells in gastric carcinoma (GC). YC-1 is a HIF-1α inhibitor, and we revealed that low-dose YC-1 (10 µM) suppressed HIF-1α expression, and induced hypoxia-dependent apoptosis in the GC cell line

microRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to regulate angiogenesis by down-regulating the expression of pro-angiogenic or anti-angiogenic factors. The aims of this study were to investigate whether miR-26a inhibited angiogenesis by down-regulating vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) and its clinical
