The transcription factor Egr1 regulates the HIF‐1α gene during hypoxia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Using oligonucleotide expression microarrays we have examined the modulation of gene expression in the DU145 prostate cancer cell line. Our findings confirm that the Egr1 transcription factor is rapidly and transiently upregulated by hypoxia. Furthermore, we have demonstrated that HIF-1alpha mRNA is also transiently upregulated, as is its target gene VEGF. To elucidate the mechanism of the transcriptional upregulation of the HIF-1alpha gene, we have shown that Egr1 is able to directly bind to the HIF-1alpha promoter using chromatin immunoprecipitation. We also provide evidence that the binding of Egr1 is necessary for the trans-activation of the HIF-1alpha promoter. These studies highlight the importance for the Egr1 transcription factor in the hypoxic response in cultured prostate cancer cell lines, and indicate that the response of Egr1 is upstream of HIF-1 in these cells. These studies are the first demonstration that the HIF-1alpha transcription factor is targeted directly by Egr1 in hypoxia.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
