Title: Stabilizing HIF to Ameliorate Anemia. Author: Voit RA, Sankaran VG. Journal: Cell; 2020 Jan 09; 180(1):6. PubMed ID: 31951520. Abstract: Erythropoietin (EPO) production in the kidney is regulated by the oxygen-sensing transcription factor HIF-1α, which is degraded under normoxic conditions by HIF-prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PHD). Inhibition of HIF-PHD by roxadustat leads to increased EPO production, better iron absorption, and amelioration of anemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD).[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
