dc.description.abstract | Adaptation to hypoxia involves hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIFs) and requires reprogramming of cellular metabolism that is essential during both physiological and pathological processes. In contrast to the established role of HIF-1 in glucose metabolism, the involvement of HIFs and the molecular mechanisms concerning the effects of hypoxia on lipid metabolism are poorly characterized. Here, we report that exposure of human cells to hypoxia causes accumulation of triglycerides and lipid droplets. This is accompanied by induction of lipin 1, a phosphatidate phosphatase isoform that catalyzes the penultimate step in triglyceride biosynthesis, whereas lipin 2 remains unaffected. Hypoxic upregulation of lipin 1 expression involves predominantly HIF-1, which binds to a single distal hypoxia-responsive element in the lipin 1 gene promoter and causes its activation under low oxygen conditions. Accumulation of hypoxic triglycerides or lipid droplets can be blocked by siRNA-mediated silencing of lipin 1 expression or kaempferol-mediated inhibition of HIF-1. We conclude that direct control of lipin 1 transcription by HIF-1 is an important regulatory feature of lipid metabolism and its adaptation to hypoxia. | en |
