Abstract

Carcinogenesis is a complex process leading to abnormal regulation of cell proliferation through DNA-damage and respectively -mutation, overexpression of oncogenes and/ or loss of function of tumor suppressor genes. As a result tumor-hypoxia evolves from a fast and impaired proliferation of tumor tissue. It is an established fact that tumors are only fed through diffusion up to a size of 100-200 µm, which reveals that growth of solid tumors depends on sufficient angiogenesis. The hypoxia-inducible-factor 1 (HIF-1), a hetero-dimer, consisting of two subunits HIF-1α and HIF-1β is induced in low oxygen pressure and mediates activation of target genes for adaption of tumor cells to hypoxia, giving HIF-1 a key role in tumor progression. The background of this dissertation was the characterization of hypoxic effects in human pulmonal tumor cell lines A549, H23 (NSCLC) and H69 (SCLC) regarding the transcription factors HIF-1a , HIF-2a and HIF-3a and its target genes of angiogenesis (VEGF), glycolysis (PGK) and apoptosis. This data resulted in further studies of possible „alternative regulation mechanisms“ of HIF-1a using tumor suppressor gene PTEN and oncogen HER2(neu).
