The role of IFN-γ/CXCL10 axis in Mycoplasma pneumonia infection by Yanxia Zou, Feng Huang, Jiying Sun, Yidan Zheng, Ge Dai, Ting Wang, Canhong Zhu, Yongdong Yan, Renzheng Wang, Zhengrong Chen

“…In addition, IFN-γ-stimulated macrophages greatly promoted the trans-migration of Th1 cells. our data show that Th1 cells-derived IFN-γ augments CXCL10 production in macrophages via the JAK-STAT1 pathway, which subsequently recruits more immune cells like Th1 cells into the infection sites, thereby constituting a positive feedback loop and aggravating the type I inflammatory responses in MPP patients.…”
