Interestingly, in this present study, whereas PCPEC displayed a strong inflammatory response to infection, genes attributed to hypoxia were found to play a more prominent role during infection in HIBCPP cells (including ZFP36L1, MXI1, KLHL24, PNRC1, CDKN1C, and DUSP2). The gene discussed is CDKN1C; the disease is infection.
