Interferon Induction of TAP1 The Phosphatase SHP-1 Regulates Crossover Between the IFN-a/b and the IFN-g Signal-Transduction Pathways

چکیده
Interferon (IFN)-g and IFN-a/b induction of the transporter associated with antigen processing-1 (TAP1) promoter was compared in HeLa cells and endothelial cells (ECs). In HeLa cells, IFN-g acts through Stat1a/Stat1a homodimers binding to the gamma activating sequence (GAS) and IFN-a/b acts through Stat1/Stat2/p48 binding to the IFN-stimulated response element (ISRE). In ECs, however, IFN-g and IFN-a/b act through both the GAS and ISRE. The basis of the IFN signaling crossover in ECs was investigated. HeLa and ECs contain similar ratios of Stat1a to Stat2 proteins, and IFN-a/b also activates the same Janus kinases (JAKs) (Jak1 and tyrosine kinase (Tyk) 2 but not Jak2). However, IFN-a/b activates more Stat1a than does IFN-g in ECs, whereas the reverse occurs in HeLa, and expression of the IFN-a/b receptor-associated phosphatase SHP-1 is much lower in ECs than HeLa cells. Overexpression of SHP-1 in ECs blocks IFN-a/b signaling through GAS, and expression of a dominant negative SHP-1 in HeLa cells permits IFN-a/b signaling through GAS, demonstrating a role for SHP-1 in regulating crossovers between the IFN-a/b and IFN-g signaling pathways.

The Jak-Stat Signaling Pathway of Interferons System: Snapshots
Interferons (IFNs) are a family of small regulatory glycoproteins that play a central role in the defense against viral infections. Although IFNs have been initially discovered as antiviral factors, today they are known as an integral part of the cytokine network that affect a wide range of biological processes. IFNs exert their pleiotropic effects through their multisubunit cell surface recept...

Introduction: Interferon (IFN) was first introduced by Isaacs and Linddeman in 1957. It referred to a factor that could cause inhibition in the growth of the live influenza virus. Interferons are intracellular proteins that are involved in many cellular processes such as growth, proliferation, differentiation, metabolism of the extracellular matrix, apoptosis, and regulating immune responses.

متن کاملDifferential regulation of the alpha/beta interferon-stimulated Jak/Stat pathway by the SH2 domain-containing tyrosine phosphatase SHPTP1.
Interferons (IFNs) induce early-response genes by stimulating Janus family (Jak) tyrosine kinases, leading to tyrosine phosphorylation of Stat transcription factors. Previous studies implicated protein-tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) activity in the control of IFN-regulated Jak/Stat signaling, but the specific PTPs responsible remained unidentified. We have found that SH2 domain-containing PTP1 (SHP...

Src homology phosphotyrosyl phosphatase 2 (Shp-2) is a ubiquitously expressed protein that is involved in a variety of cellular processes, including antiviral interferon signalling pathways. In this study, we investigated the role of Shp-2 in the host cell interactions of human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). We report significant changes in the expression of Shp-2 in human pulmonary alveola...
