Enhanced TLR-mediated NF-IL6–dependent gene expression by Trib1 deficiency
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize a variety of microbial components and mediate downstream signal transduction pathways that culminate in the activation of nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) and mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases. Trib1 is reportedly involved in the regulation of NF-kappaB and MAP kinases, as well as gene expression in vitro. To clarify the physiological function of Trib...
متن کاملMacrophage differentiation-specific expression of NF-IL6, a transcription factor for interleukin-6.
NF-IL6 was originally identified as a DNA binding protein regulating interleukin-1 (IL-1)-stimulated IL-6 expression. Direct cloning of NF-IL6 showed its homology with C/EBP, a hepatocyte- and adipocyte-specific transcription factor. This study showed that the expression of NF-IL6 messenger RNA (mRNA) increased markedly during the differentiation to a (mRNA) increased markedly during the differ...
متن کاملInduction of interleukin (IL)-6 by hypoxia is mediated by nuclear factor (NF)-kappa B and NF-IL6 in cardiac myocytes.
OBJECTIVES We have previously reported that interleukin (IL)-6 is induced by hypoxic stimulation in cardiac myocytes. In the present study, we examined the induction of potent transcription factors of IL-6, nuclear factor (NF)-kappa B and NF-IL6, in cardiac myocytes subjected to hypoxia. METHODS Five different lengths of IL-6 promoter-luciferase reporter plasmids and three mutant plasmids, in...
متن کاملTargeted disruption of the NF-IL6 gene discloses its essential role in bacteria killing and tumor cytotoxicity by macrophages
To investigate the role of NF-IL6 in vivo, we have generated NF-IL6 (-/-) mice by gene targeting. NF-IL6 (-/-) mice were highly susceptible to infection by Listeria monocytogenes. Electron microscopic observation revealed the escape of a larger number of pathogens from the phagosome to the cytoplasm in activated macrophages from NF-IL6 (-/-) mice. Furthermore, the tumor cytotoxicity of macropha...
متن کاملAdhesion of Immature and Mature T Cells Induces in Human Thymic Epithelial Cells (TEC) Activation of IL-6 Gene Trascription Factors (NF-κB And NF-IL6) and IL-6 Gene Expression : Role of αtβ1 and α6β4 Integrins
T cell precursors homed to thymus develop in close contact with stromal cells. Among them, thymic epithelial cells (TEC) are known to exert dominant roles in their survival and functional shaping. Key molecules mediating TEC/thymocytes interactions include cytokines and growth factors secreted by the two cell types and adhesion receptors mediating cell contact. Signaling events triggered in thy...
