Towards a mechanistic understanding of von Hippel-Lindau syndrome in different tissues
—
by
VHL syndrome (VHL) arises from pathogenic inactivation of the von Hippel-Lindau protein (pVHL). The pVHL mediates the degradation of HIF-1α transcription factor, thus regulating hypoxia response. In light of multiple types of cancer ascribed for VHL, different HIF-independent functions were attributed to pVHL. In particular it is thought to induce cell senescence, mediate assembly and…
