Carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) is a transmembrane protein whose expression is strongly induced by hypoxia in a broad spectrum of human tumours. It is a highly active enzyme functionally involved in both pH control and cell adhesion. Its presence in tumours usually indicates poor prognosis. Ectodomain
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the prognostic significance of potential tumour markers of hypoxia and apoptosis in early squamous cell carcinoma of the glottic larynx managed with radiotherapy.
METHODS
In total, 382 patients with T1 and T2 squamous cell carcinoma of the glottic larynx (vocal cords) received
Hypoxia is an important factor of tumor microenvironment that significantly influences behaviour of tumor cells via activation of genes whose products are involved in adaptation to hypoxic stress, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and glucose transporter (GLUT-1). Carbonic anhydrase
OBJECTIVE
Hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment triggers a variety of genetic and adaptive responses that regulate tumor growth. Tumor hypoxia is often associated with more malignant phenotypes, resistance to therapy, and poor survival. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of
Carbonic anhydrase 9 (CA9) is a protein to be upregulated under exposure to hypoxic conditions. Hypoxic conditions are known to be associated with resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and with poor cancer prognosis. We examined CA9 expression in surgical specimens from oesophageal squamous
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the expression of carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) and vascular-endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in esophageal and gastric adenocarcinomas and in turn with the histologic subtype.
BACKGROUND
Tumor hypoxia is an important factor in therapy resistance. A low oxygen concentration in
Carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) is a tumor-associated, hypoxia-induced enzyme involved in pH regulation and cell adhesion. Its catalytically active ectodomain (ECD) is linked to a transmembrane region and a short intracellular (IC) tail. Removal of the IC tail causes intracellular localization of CA
Carbonic anhydrases (CA) influence intra- and extracellular pH and ion transport in varied biological processes. We recently identified CA9 and CA12 as hypoxia-inducible genes. In this study we examined the expression of these tumor-associated CAs by immunohistochemistry in relation to necrosis and
Carbonic anhydrase-9 (CA9), a transmembrane enzyme with an extracellular active site, is involved in the reversible metabolism of the carbon dioxide to carbonic acid. Up-regulation of CA by hypoxia and the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway has been recently postulated (Wykoff et al. Cancer
BACKGROUND
Carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) is a tumor-associated, highly active, transmembrane carbonic anhydrase isoform regulated by hypoxia and implicated in pH control and adhesion-migration-invasion. CA IX ectodomain (ECD) is shed from the tumor cell surface to serum/plasma of patients, where it
Human carbonic anhydrase (CA) IX has emerged as a promising anticancer target and a diagnostic biomarker for solid hypoxic tumors. Novel fluorinated CA IX inhibitors exhibited up to 50 pM affinity towards the recombinant human CA IX, selectivity over other CAs, and direct binding to Zn(II) in the
OBJECTIVE
Gastric cancers are characterized by a heterogeneously hypoxic environment. Hypoxia might stimulate the malignant potential of cancer cells. The purpose of our study was to clarify the significance of hypoxia in gastric carcinoma by evaluating the expression of a hypoxic marker, namely
To investigate the role of carbonic anhydrase in the recovery of skeletal muscle from anoxia, pH and cell phosphates were measured by (31)P-nuclear magnetic resonance in superfused newborn rabbit myotubes and cultured mouse soleus cells (H-2K(b)-ts a58) after approximately 2-3.5 h without
Tumour-associated expression of CA IX (carbonic anhydrase IX) is to a major extent regulated by HIF-1 (hypoxia-inducible factor-1) which is important for transcriptional activation and consists of the oxygen-regulated subunit HIF-1alpha and the partner factor ARNT [AhR (aryl hydrocarbon receptor)
Inflammation promotes colorectal carcinogenesis. Tumour growth often generates a hypoxic environment in the inner tumour mass. We here report that, in colon cancer cells, the expression of the pro-inflammatory enzyme cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) associates with that of the hypoxia response gene carbonic
