Ataxin-10 Inhibits TNF-α-Induced Endothelial Inflammation via Suppressing Interferon Regulatory Factor-1 by Yong Li, Qi Zhang, Na Li, Liting Ding, Jinping Yi, Yue Xiao, Shibiao Chen, Xuan Huang

“…Using the yeast two-hybrid assay, we found that Ataxin-10 can directly bind to interferon regulatory factor-1 (IRF-1). Upon TNF-α stimulation, Ataxin-10 promoted the cytoplasmic localization of IRF-1, which inhibited the transcription of VCAM-1. …”

Killer-Cell Inhibitory Receptors, CD158a/b, are Upregulated by Interleukin-2, but not Interferon-γ or Interleukin-4 by Toshiaki Kogure, Hiroshi Fujinaga, Atsushi Niizawa, Le Xuan Hai, Yutaka Shimada, Hiroshi Ochiai, Katsutoshi Terasawa

“…Therefore, we investigated the regulation of expression of representative KIRs, CD158a and CD158b, by cytokines such as interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-4 and interferon-γ (IFN-γ). Neither IL-4 nor IFN-γ affected the expression of CD158a/b, but incubation for 48 h with IL-2, which enhances the killer activity of NK cells, upregulated the expression of the KIRs. …”
