摘要：Objective:To evaluate the effect of HIF-1 α over-expression on angiogenesis in human prostate cancer cells. Methods:LNCaP cells(a human prostate cancer cell line) were transfected with the recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1(-)-HIF-1α with Lipofectamine 2000 system. The positive clones were selected by G418 being further confirmed by Western blot and immunofluorescence. The expression levels of VEGF, iNOS and Ang- Ⅱ were determined. Results:The expression of HIF-1α in the LNCaP/HIF1α cells was significantly increased in transfected cells, which induced the up-regulation of VEGF, iNOS, whereas Ang- Ⅱ expression remained un- changed. Conclusion :Over-expression of HIF-1α can induce angiogenesis proteins and may improve the angiogenesis potency of prostate cancer.
