Members of the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) family of transcription factors regulate the cellular response to hypoxia. HIF2-Alpha is involved in catecholamine homeostasis, vascular remodeling, physiological angiogenesis and adipogenesis. It is overexpressed in many cancerous tissues, but its exact role in tumour progression remains to be clarified. Studies suggest that in the case of non-small cell lung cancer, HIF2-Alpha actually is a promoter of tumor growth and progression in a solid tumor. Other data suggests that HIF2-Alpha is an important regulator of innate immunity, and therefore may be useful in the therapeutic target for treating inflammatory disorders and cancer.
HIF2 alpha Antibody was produced in mice by repeated immunizations raised against a recombinant protein corresponding to an internal region of human EPAS-1 (HIF2alpha).
