<t>HIF-1α</t> mediates CXCR4 induction by HRG in breast cancer cells. (A) Induction of HIF-1α by HRG. BT-474, MDA-MB-361, and MCF-7 breast cancer cells were incubated with HRG (10 ng/ml) for different times. HIF-1α, phospho-Akt, and phospho-Erk were determined by Western blotting in cell lysates. (Top) Short-term incubation with HRG. (Bottom) Long-term incubation with HRG. As a positive control for HIF-1α induction, CoCl2 (100 μM) was used. (B) HRG (10 ng/ml) does not induce HIF-1α in MCF-10A cells. (C) Breast cancer cells were incubated with HRG (10 ng/ml; 16 h) or vehicle (control).
