Human papillomavirus E6 and Myc proteins associate in vivo and bind to and cooperatively activate the telomerase reverse transcriptase promoter.
The papillomavirus E6 protein binds and directs the ubiquitin-dependent degradation of the p53 tumor suppressor protein. Independent of this p53-degradative function, however, E6 induces cellular telomerase activity. This increase in enzyme activity reflects E6-enhanced transcription of the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) catalytic subunit, but the molecular basis for this transa...
متن کاملShaping the murine macrophage phenotype: IL-4 and cyclic AMP synergistically activate the arginase I promoter.
Arginase I is a marker of murine M2 macrophages and is highly expressed in many inflammatory diseases. The basis for high arginase I expression in macrophages in vivo is incompletely understood but likely reflects integrated responses to combinations of stimuli. Our objective was to elucidate mechanisms involved in modulating arginase I induction by IL-4, the prototypical activator of M2 macrop...
متن کاملSoluble IL-15/IL-15Rα complexes in human serum.
In this issue of Blood, Bergamaschi and colleagues demonstrate that effectively all circulating IL-15 found in the serum of humans and mice is associated with the soluble IL-15Rα.(1)
متن کاملInterleukin-15 (IL-15) induces NF-kappaB activation and IL-8 production in human neutrophils.
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) and IL-15 exert similar biological actions, which largely reflect the fact that their receptors share common beta and gamma subunits; in contrast, distinct subunits are required for high-affinity binding of either cytokine to a heterotrimeric receptor complex. Human neutrophils are known to express both the beta and gamma subunits of the IL-2/IL-15 receptor complex, and we ...
متن کاملInterleukin-15 (IL-15) induces IL-8 and monocyte chemotactic protein 1 production in human monocytes.
Interleukin-15 (IL-15) is a recently characterized cytokine that shares many biological activities with IL-2 and interacts with the beta and gamma components of the IL-2 receptor. Unlike IL-2, which is secreted only by T cells, IL-15 is expressed preferentially by nonlymphoid tissues, epithelial, and fibroblast cell lines and by activated monocytes/macrophages. High concentrations of IL-15 have...
