We found that 5'-deoxy-5'-(methylthio)adenosine (MTA) (300 μM), S3I-201 (10 μM), STAT3 inhibitor VII (3 μM) and JAK-inhibitor I (0.3 μM) had anti-neurotoxic effects on IFN-γ (50 U/ml)-activated astrocytes and U373-MG astrocytoma cells.
Regulation of monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 transcription by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) in human astrocytoma cells: postinduction refractory state of the gene, governed by its upstream elements.
In the present paper we studied the regulation of alpha 2 Mr expression by interferon-gamma (IFN gamma) in human astrocytoma cell lines and in fetal astrocytes.
Here, we report that lipopolysaccharide and interferon-gamma, which are able to strongly induce iNOS in astrocytoma cells, can rapidly inhibit the NO production generated by the constitutive NOS isoform, thus obtaining the best conditions for iNOS induction and resolving the apparent paradox.
In this report, we examined interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta)-mediated regulation of the expression of C3, the third component of complement, in a human astroglioma cell line.
Inhibition of interferon-gamma-induced major histocompatibility complex class II gene transcription by interferon-beta and type beta 1 transforming growth factor in human astrocytoma cells. Definition of cis-element.
Interferon-beta specifically inhibits interferon-gamma-induced class II major histocompatibility complex gene transcription in a human astrocytoma cell line.
