Coordinated regulation of IGF1R by HIF1α and HIF2α enhances chemoresistance in glioblastoma
Glioblastoma cells, residing within a hypoxic microenvironment, exhibit high expression of HIF1α and HIF2α. These transcription factors promote the upregulation of IGF1R, which subsequently activates the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. This activation, in turn, promotes cell proliferation and chemoresistance, ultimately contributing to tumor malignancy.
