Cellular oxygen-sensing pathways are primarily regulated by hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) in chronic hypoxia and are well studied. Intermittent hypoxia also occurs in many pathological conditions, yet little is known about its biological effects. In this study, we investigated how two proposed cellular oxygen sensing systems, HIF-1 and KDM4A-C, respond to cells exposed to intermittent hypoxia and compared to chronic hypoxia. We found that intermittent hypoxia increases HIF-1 activity through a pathway distinct from chronic hypoxia, involving the KDM4A, -B and -C histone lysine demethylases. Intermittent hypoxia increases the quantity and activity of KDM4A-C resulting in a decrease in H3K9 methylation. This contrasts with chronic hypoxia, which decreases KDM4A-C activity, leading to hypermethylation of H3K9. Demethylation of histones bound to the HIF1A gene in intermittent hypoxia increases HIF1A mRNA expression, which has the downstream effect of increasing overall HIF-1 activity and expression of HIF target genes. This study highlights how multiple oxygen-sensing pathways can interact to regulate and fine tune the cellular hypoxic response depending on the period and length of hypoxia.
