Hypoxia-inducible factors 1伪 and 2伪 (HIF-1伪 and HIF-2伪) determine cancer cell fate under hypoxia. Despite the similarities of their structures, HIF-1伪 and HIF-2伪 have distinct roles in cancer growth under hypoxia, that is, HIF-1伪 induces growth arrest whereas HIF-2伪 promotes cell growth. Recently, sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) was reported to fine-tune cellular responses to hypoxia by deacetylating HIF-1伪 and HIF-2伪. Yet, the roles of Sirt1 in HIF-1伪 and HIF-2伪 functions have been controversial. We here investigated the precise roles of Sirt1 in HIF-1伪 and HIF-2伪 regulations. Immunological analyses revealed that HIF-1伪 K674 and HIF-2伪 K741 are acetylated by PCAF and CBP, respectively, but are deacetylated commonly by Sirt1. In the Gal4 reporter systems, Sirt1 was found to repress HIF-1伪 activity constantly in ten cancer cell-lines but to regulate HIF-2伪 activity cell type-dependently. Moreover, Sirt1 determined cell growth under hypoxia depending on HIF-1伪 and HIF-2伪. Under hypoxia, Sirt1 promoted cell proliferation of HepG2, in which Sirt1 differentially regulates HIF-1伪 and HIF-2伪. In contrast, such an effect of Sirt1 was not shown in HCT116, in which Sirt1 inactivates both HIF-1伪 and HIF-2伪 because conflicting actions of HIF-1伪 and HIF-2伪 on cell growth may be offset. Our results provide a better understanding of the roles of Sirt1 in HIF-mediated hypoxic responses and also a basic concept for developing anticancer strategy targeting Sirt1.
