Wouters 04 July 2011 Background and purpose Hypoxia is a common feature of the microenvironment of solid tumors which has been shown to promote malignancy and poor patient outcome through multiple mechanisms. The association of hypoxia with ... Read More

Savelkouls, Johan Bussink, Albert J. van der Kogel, Marianne Koritzinsky, Bradly G. Wouters Background and purpose: Tumour hypoxia is an important limiting factor in the successful treatment of cancer. Adaptation to hypoxia includes inhibition of mTOR, causing scavenging of eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E), the rate-limiting ... Read More

Bradly G. Wouters & Marianne Koritzinsky Abstract Hypoxia occurs in the majority of tumours, promoting angiogenesis, metastasis and resistance to therapy. Responses to hypoxia are orchestrated in part through activation of the hypoxia-inducible factor family of transcription factors (HIFs). Recently, two additional O2-sensitive signalling pathways have also been implicated: signalling through the mammalian target of rapamycin ... Read More
