T cell LFA-1 engagement induces HuR-dependent cytokine mRNA stabilization through a Vav-1, Rac1/2, p38MAPK and MKK3 signaling cascade. by Vinod S Ramgolam, Scott D DeGregorio, Gautham K Rao, Mark Collinge, Sharmila S Subaran, Silva Markovic-Plese, Ruggero Pardi, Jeffrey R Bender

“…<h4>Conclusions/significance</h4>Collectively, these results demonstrate that LFA-1-induced stabilization of ARE-containing mRNAs in T cells is dependent on HuR, and occurs through the Vav-1, Rac1/2, MKK3 and p38MAPK signaling cascade. This pathway constitutes a molecular switch that enhances immune and pro-inflammatory gene expression in T cells undergoing adhesion at sites of activation and effector function.…”
