The hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) transcriptional complex is regulated by cellular oxygen levels and growth factors. The phosphoinosotide 3-kinase (PI-3K)-Akt/protein kinase B (PKB) pathway has been shown to regulate HIF-1 activity in response to oncogenic signals and growth factors. We assessed whether the HDM2 oncoprotein, a direct target of Akt/PKB, could regulate HIF-1{alpha} expression and HIF-1 activity under normoxic conditions. We found that growth factor stimulation, overexpression of Akt/PKB, or loss of PTEN resulted in enhanced expression of both HIF-1{alpha} and HDM2. Growth factor-mediated induction of HIF-1{alpha} was ablated by transient expression of a dominant negative form of Akt/PKB or by treatment with LY294002. Transient expression of HDM2 led to increased expression of HIF-1{alpha}. Pulse-chase and cycloheximide experiments revealed that HDM2 did not significantly affect the half-life of HIF-1{alpha}. Growth factor-induced HIF-1{alpha} and HDM2 proteins were localized to the nucleus, and induction of both proteins was observed in both p53+/+ and p53-/- HCT116 cells to comparable levels. Importantly, insulin-like growth factor 1-induced HIF-1{alpha} expression was observed in p53-null mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) but was significantly impaired in p53 Mdm2 double-null MEFs, indicating a requirement for Mdm2 in this process. Finally, we showed that phosphorylation at Ser166 in HDM2 contributed in part to growth factor-mediated induction of HIF-1{alpha}. Our study has important implications for the role of the PI-3K-Akt/PKB-HDM2 pathway in tumor progression and angiogenesis.
