The known hypoxia mimetics CPX and DFX were used as positive controls; vinculin served as loading control. (b) Verification of bufexamac-specific upregulation of HIF1-α. HIF1-α protein expression was analyzed 4 h after treatment of cells with the indicated compounds. Ac, acetylated. (c) Time-course analysis of HIF1-α induction by bufexamac. The induction of HIF1-α protein was analyzed by immunoblotting. The graph shows rapid stabilization of HIF1-α upon bufexamac treatment with half-maximal intensity I1/2 of about 75 min.
