Hypoxia Inducible Factor-1 (HIF-1) is an important transcription factor that stimulates tumour growth and metastases via several pathways, including angiogenesis and altered metabolism. Activation of HIF-1 depends on the levels of its alpha-subunit, which increase during hypoxia. Recent studies showed that the HIF-1alpha gene was amplified in prostate cancer, leading to overexpression of HIF-1alpha at normoxia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of HIF-1alpha gene amplifications in invasive breast cancer as an explanation for HIF-1alpha protein overexpression.
