Title:

ROS/PI3K/Akt and Wnt/ß-catenin signalings activate HIF-1a-induced metabolic reprogramming to impart 5-fluorouracil resistance in colorectal cancer

Excerpt:
HIF-1α showed enhanced expression in 5-FU-resistant CRC cell lines and clinical specimens, and increased HIF-1α levels were associated with failure of fluorouracil analog-based chemotherapy in CRC patients and poor survival. HIF-1α is a potential biomarker for 5-FU-resistant CRC, and targeting HIF-1a in combination with 5-FU may represent an effective therapeutic strategy in 5-FU-resistant CRC.
