    2. Hypoxia appears to up-regulate the expression of liprin-alpha4, which induces the expression of HIF1alpha. HIF1alpha contributes to increased proliferation and lower chemosensitivity. Therefore, inhibition of liprin-alpha4 or HIF1alpha led to reduced proliferation and increased chemosensitivity of SBC-5 cells.

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
