Compound (1s) decreases HIF-dependent gene transcription. MDA-MB-468-UnaG cells were pre-treated for 1 h without (CTRL) or with compound (1s) or BAY 11-7085 (BAY) before being grown (a,b) in the absence (normoxia; CTRL) or (c,d) presence of 100 µM CoCl2 (hypoxia) for another 24 h. (a,c) Representative fluorescence images. Scale bar: 200 µm (b,d) Total fluorescence intensity of HIF-mediated UnaG was normalized to the CTRL group. Statistical difference was calculated with one-way ANOVA (b) vs. CTRL (normoxia) (ns = not significant, * p < 0.05). (d) vs. CTRL (hypoxia) (# p < 0.05); vs. CoCl2 (* p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001). (b,d) Columns represent the mean ± SEM (n = 3).
