Cutting edge: Slamf8 is a negative regulator of Nox2 activity in macrophages.
Slamf8 (CD353) is a cell surface receptor that is expressed upon activation of macrophages (MΦs) by IFN-γ or bacteria. In this article, we report that a very high NADPH oxidase (Nox2) enzyme activity was found in Slamf8(-/-) MΦs in response to Escherichia coli or Staphylococcus aureus, as well as to PMA. The elevated Nox2 activity in Slamf8(-/-) MΦs was also demonstrated in E. coli or S. aureus...
متن کاملPTEN is a negative regulator of NK cell cytolytic function.
Human NK cells are characterized by their ability to initiate an immediate and direct cytolytic response to virally infected or malignantly transformed cells. Within human peripheral blood, the more mature CD56(dim) NK cell efficiently kills malignant targets at rest, whereas the less mature CD56(bright) NK cells cannot. In this study, we show that resting CD56(bright) NK cells express signific...
متن کاملThe IκB Function of NF-κB2 p100 Controls Stimulated Osteoclastogenesis
The prototranscription factor p100 represents an intersection of the NF-kappaB and IkappaB families, potentially serving as both the precursor for the active NF-kappaB subunit p52 and as an IkappaB capable of retaining NF-kappaB in the cytoplasm. NF-kappaB-inducing kinase (NIK) controls processing of p100 to generate p52, and thus NIK-deficient mice can be used to examine the biological effects...
متن کاملCutting Edge Cutting Edge: Negative Regulation of Dendritic Cells through Acetylation of the Nonhistone Protein STAT-3
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition modulates dendritic cell (DC) functions and regulates experimental graft-vs-host disease and other immune-mediated diseases. The mechanisms by which HDAC inhibition modulates immune responses remain largely unknown. STAT-3 is a transcription factor shown to negatively regulate DC functions. In this study we report that HDAC inhibition acetylates and activat...
متن کاملDendritic cell (DC)-specific targeting reveals Stat3 as a negative regulator of DC function.
Dendritic cells (DCs) must achieve a critical balance between activation and tolerance, a process influenced by cytokines and growth factors. IL-10, which transduces signals through Stat3, has emerged as one important negative regulator of DC activation. To directly examine the role Stat3 plays in regulating DC activity, the Stat3 gene was targeted for deletion with a CD11c-cre transgene. Stat3...
