Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α plays a role in tumor invasion by inducing matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) gene expression in cancer patients. Tissues from patients with breast cancer and corresponding normal tissues were prepared, and lysed. HIF-1α and MMP-9 expression were detected by Western blotting (arrows).
N=normal; T=tumor tissue.
