title: [Interaction of viruses with cellular response to hypoxia].
abstract: Recent studies show that low oxygen tension levels in cell culture up-regulate the replication of human B19 parvovirus, Kaposi's sarcoma, and human immunodeficiency viruses as well as the expression of viral oncogenic proteins. The mechanisms of this regulation proceed with the major hypoxia-related factor, HIF-1 (hypoxia inducible factor-1). HIF-1 misregulation is implicated in the oncogenesis potential of some of these viruses.
