Cytokeratin expression in rat mesothelial cells
Rat mesothelial cells co-express vimentin and the simple epithelial cytokeratins. While cytokeratins predominate in situ, under most culture conditions vimentin is the major intermediate filament protein of the cells. This loss of cytokeratin production upon culture can be partly prevented by growing mesothelial cells on a basement membrane matrix. However, the basement membrane-promoted persis...
متن کاملEXPRESSION OF HUMAN PROTEINASE 3 IN CHINESE HAMSTER OVARY CELLS (CHO-CELLS)
Proteinase 3(PR3) is a human polymorphonuclear leukocyte serine proteinase and is the main target antigen for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) found in Wegener's granulomatosis (WG). We developed a stable expression system for conformationally intact recombinant PR3 (rPR3) in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-cells). The part of PR3 cDNA that encoded the active form of PR3 was s...
متن کاملRegulation of Th2 cytokine expression in NKT cells: unconventional use of Stat6, GATA-3, and NFAT2.
NKT cells are unique in that they can produce high levels of both Th1 and Th2 cytokines, yet little is known about how NKT cells control the transcription of Th2 cytokines. The expression of IL-4 by NKT cells is independent of the Th2-associated transcription factor Stat6. We have found that Stat6 is critical for the expression of IL-5, IL-10, and IL-13 by NKT cells. However, the Th2 cell-assoc...
متن کاملProtein kinase A regulates GATA-3-dependent activation of IL-5 gene expression in Th2 cells.
Treatment of Th cells with compounds that elevate cAMP levels augments Th2-type lymphokine expression, in particular the synthesis of IL-5. Using primary murine CD4(+) T lymphocytes, we show in this study that inhibition of protein kinase A (PKA) activity in Th2 effector cells impairs IL-5 synthesis, whereas the expression of PKA catalytic subunit alpha enhances IL-5 synthesis in Th0 cells. In ...
متن کاملFriend of GATA-1 Represses GATA-3–dependent Activity in CD4+ T Cells
The development of naive CD4+ T cells into a T helper (Th) 2 subset capable of producing interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5, and IL-13 involves a signal transducer and activator of transcription (Stat)6-dependent induction of GATA-3 expression, followed by Stat6-independent GATA-3 autoactivation. The friend of GATA (FOG)-1 protein regulates GATA transcription factor activity in several stages of hematopo...
