Abstract:
Hypoxia-induced factors(HIFs)are the main regula-tors for the response of hypoxic environment.They are involved in hypoxia-related lung tissue cell damage and abnormal cell pro-liferation,among which,HIF-1αand HIF-2αplay the most im-prominant roles.This paper reviews the current researches of HIF-1αand HIF-2α,focusing on their structural and functional similarities and diversities,as well as their roles in the patho-genesis of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension.
