In this issue of Blood, Elks et al describe a novel role for activated hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1α in sustaining inflammation by delaying neutrophilic retrograde emigration and preventing neutrophil apoptosis through the inhibition of prolyl hydroxylase (PHD) activity. This property is a novel function for HIFs, the master regulators of our body's response to hypoxia.
