Effect of hypoxia on gene expression among HK-2 cells and 786-0 cells
Although both of renal interstitial fibrosis (RIF) and renal carcinoma (RCC) are in hypoxic microenvironments, they underwent several contrary  pathologicall changes. To investigate the potent targets in the RIF and RCC through transcriptome alterations of hypoxia compared with normoxia, we established hypoxia cell culture models, primarily simulating hypoxia microenvironments in RIF and RCC. By bioinformatics analysis, a certain number of significant differentially expressed genes (DEGs) among RIF and RCC were recognized. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seqencing of 2 different cells cultured in hypoxia and normoxia. Overall design: Comparative gene expression profiling analysis of RNA-seq data for HK-2 cells and 786-0 cells in hypoxia and normoxia respectively.
