Effects of HIF PHD inhibitors on hypoxia gene expression. Expression of hypoxia genes, HIF1α, Bnip3, Phd2, Vegf, Pfkfb1, Pfkfb3, Ldha, after treatment with 100 µM PHD inhibitors in normoxia for 24 hours were normalised to β-actin levels. Significant upregulation of Bnip3 and Vegf was seen with FG4592 and Bay85-3934. Phd2 was significant upregulated by FG4592. Pfkfb3 was significantly upregulated by DMOG, FG2216, FG492, GSK1278863, and Bay85-3934. Ldha was significantly upregulated by FG2216, GSK1278863 and Bay85-3934. HIF1α was not changed by any of the HIF PHD inhibitors. Each data point represented the mean and standard deviation of the relative fold change with respect to 1% DMSO-treated sample normalised to reference gene β-actin level. The dotted line represented basal gene expression. Statistical significance was indicated as *P < 0.05 (Two-way ANOVA, Tukey’s post-hoc analysis).
