Regulation of Interleukin-12 by Complement Receptor 3 Signaling
Complement receptor type 3 (CR3, CD11b/CD18) serves as a receptor for a number of endogenous ligands and infectious organisms, and is involved in adhesion and host defense functions. Here, we report that signaling via CR3 plays an important role in regulating production of interleukin-12 (IL-12), a key mediator of cell-mediated immunity (CMI). We demonstrate with a variety of stimuli a dose-dep...
متن کاملNegative regulation of interleukin-12 signaling by suppressor of cytokine signaling-1.
Suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS-1) is an inhibitory protein that regulates responses to cytokines. Previously, we have shown SOCS-1 to be a key inhibitor of interferon gamma (IFNgamma). Recent data suggest that SOCS-1 may regulate other cytokines in vivo, in addition to IFNgamma. Uncontrolled responses to interleukin-12 (IL-12), an inflammatory cytokine, could contribute to increased I...
متن کاملInhibition of Interleukin 7 Receptor Signaling by Antigen Receptor Assembly
After the productive rearrangement of immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy chain genes, precursor (pre-)B lymphocytes undergo a limited number of cell divisions in response to interleukin (IL)-7. Here, we present evidence that this phase of IL-7-dependent expansion is constrained by an inhibitory signal initiated by antigen receptor assembly. A line of pre-B cells from normal murine bone marrow that expre...
متن کاملEffect of interleukin 12 on tumor induction by 3-methylcholanthrene.
Interleukin (IL)-12 has strong antitumor activity in transplantable tumor systems in the mouse. The present study was designed to determine whether tumor induction by 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC), a carcinogenic hydrocarbon, can be inhibited by IL-12. BALB/cBy mice were injected subcutaneously with 25 micrograms or 100 micrograms of 3-MC and treated with 100 ng, 10 ng, or 1 ng of IL-12 for 5 day...
متن کاملThe regulation and activity of interleukin-12.
Interleukin-12 (IL-12) is a key cytokine in the development of T helper type 1 (Th1) cell polarization, and its production of IL-12 is redundantly regulated. An important pro-inflammatory cytokine, IL-12 has been shown to have potent immunomodulatory, antitumor, and anti-infection activity in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, following a series of promising results from preclinical animal models ex...
