Investigation of intracellular signals generated by γ-interferon and IL-4 leading to the induction of class II antigen expression by S. Vassiliadis, N. Kyrpides, D. Stravopodis, M. Grigoriou, I. Athanassakis, J. Papamatheakis

“…These findings are firmly supported by other reports and show, in addition, a unique action exerted by γ-IFN, since IL-4, another inducer of class II antigen expression, uses different pathways. This diversity of activation reveals the existence of a previously unknown complicated network of intracellular interactions able to regulate the same phenotype or cellular event. …”
