HIF-1α regulates MRP1 expression through a HRE in the MRP1 promoter.

Notes: Lovo cells were transfected with (A) the MRP1 promoter luciferase constructs (−998/+203, −481/+203, and −255/+203), (B) pLuc-MRP1w and HRE-mutated MRP1 promoter luciferase construct pLuc-MRP1m, and (C) pLuc-MRP1w and HIF-1α siRNA for 24 hours and then treated with or without 150 μmol/L CoCl2 for 24 hours. Luciferase activity was analyzed by normalizing firefly luciferase activity with Renilla luciferase activity. *P<0.05.

Abbreviations: Ctr, control; HIF-1α, hypoxia-inducible factor-1α; HRE, hypoxia response element; LUC, luciferase; MRP1, multidrug resistance associated protein 1.
