c-erbB-2 related aggressiveness in breast cancer is hypoxia inducible factor-1alpha dependent.

c-erbB-2-positive breast carcinomas are highly aggressive tumors. In vitro data on breast cell lines showed that c-erbB-2 enhanced translational efficiency of hypoxia inducible factor-1alpha (HIF1alpha) production (Laughner et al., Mol Cell Biol 2001;21:3995-4005). We investigated the clinical corre...
