HIF1A and breast carcinoma: In our study, it was discovered that BHLHE41 overexpression largely enhanced the levels of BHLHE41 and E-cadherin but repressed the levels of HIF-1α, N-cadherin, vimentin, and MMP9 in hypoxia-induced CC cells, which was consistent with the report of BHLHE41 in breast cancer [27].
