Abstract
Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) are a collection of transcriptional factors that engage in the regulation of oxygen homeostasis. They are hypoxia-responsive stress factors whose expression is linked to tumor growth and angiogenesis. HIF is a crucial player in the progression of breast cancer. Patients with high levels of hypoxia-inducible HIFs in their primary tumor biopsies had a higher chance of metastasis, the leading cause of breast cancer-related death. HIF polymorphisms have been shown in several epidemiological studies to influence breast cancer susceptibility. In the oxygendependent degradation domain, several short nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the HIF gene have been connected with higher HIF activity. To find SNP that make up the genetic diversity that underpins the phenotypic difference found between individuals in their susceptibility to cancer and the course of their disease, researchers used a variety of potential pathway-based approaches.
Keywords: Hypoxia-inducible factors, single nucleotide polymorphisms, breast cancer, SNPs, HIF-1, genome.
