HIF1 is related to glucose metabolism, stimulation of circulation and it was first described in hypoxia conditions, but it is now known that it can be activated also in normoxia situations, acting especially in the polarization of immune cells to more inflammatory phenotypes <ref name="Neill"</ref>. | HIF1 is related to glucose metabolism, stimulation of circulation and it was first described in hypoxia conditions, but it is now known that it can be activated also in normoxia situations, acting especially in the polarization of immune cells to more inflammatory phenotypes <ref name="Neill"</ref>. | ||
