Chronic hypoxia in the renal tubulointerstitium plays a key role in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is therefore important to investigate tubular hypoxia and the activity of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α in response to hypoxia. Rarefaction of the peritubular capillary causes hypoperfusion in CKD; however, the effect of hypoperfusion on HIFs has rarely been investigated. We induced hypoperfusion caused by coverslip placement in human kidney-2 cells, and observed an oxygen gradient under the coversli
