Detail of age-related macular degeneration (AMD)
ncRNA name HIF-2α siRNA
ncRNA Category siRNA
Disease name age-related macular degeneration (AMD)
Species Homo sapiens
Tissues/Cell_line human RPE cell line ARPE-19
Methods siRNA transfection, immunoblot, qPCR, GeneChip and PCR array
Expression pattern associated
Functional description Co-transfection of HIF-1α siRNA and HIF-2α siRNA augmented downregulation of VEGF mRNA and protein in hypoxic RPE cells and inhibited formation of tube-like structures in HUVEC. Not only VEGF, but also expression of other angiogenic genes were synergistically downregulated by co-transfection of hypoxic RPE cells with HIF-1α and HIF-2α siRNAs.
