Interferon-α and -β differentially regulate osteoclastogenesis: Role of differential induction of chemokine CXCL11 expression

Abstract: In humans, type I interferon (IFN) is a family of 17 cytokines, among which the ␣ subtypes and the ␤ subtype are differentially expressed. It has been suggested that IFN-␤ activates a specific signaling cascade in addition to those activated by all type I IFNs. Nevertheless, no true biological relevance for a differential activity of ␣ and ␤ IFN subtypes has been identified so far. Because type I IFNs are critical for the regulation of osteoclastogenesis in mice, we have compared the effect of IFN-␣2 and IFN-␤… Show more

“…For example, IFN-␤, but not IFN-␣ or IFN-, was able to induce the phosphorylation of an IFNAR1-associated subunit (1,62) later identified as IFNAR-2c (15). The TYK2-deficient cell line U1A was responsive to IFN-␤ but not to IFN-␣ 2 (25,63), and IFN-␤ has been shown to be 100-fold more potent than IFN-␣ 2 at inhibiting the differentiation of human monocytes into osteoclasts (11). These differences persist even within a single IFN subfamily.…”

“…Given the increased expression of IFN-b in pSjS serum, we hypothesized that this cytokine was mainly responsible for the type I IFN effect seen in these patients. To test this, expression of genes differentially regulated by IFN-a (pyridoxal kinase (PDXK) and vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) [19]) and IFN-b (CXCL11 and BCL2-associated transcription factor-1 (BCLAF-1) [20]) was tested. Expression of CXCL11 was significantly increased in pSjS, with BCLAF-1 following the same trend (Fig.…”

“…Apart from the fact that it is rapidly induced, of all the type I IFN isotypes, IFN-␤ is the most potent activator of the type I IFN receptor (14,15) that amplifies type I IFN responses via feed forward mechanisms (11). To resolve the complexity of the IFN system and to track the cells that initiate the type I IFN signaling cascade, we generated a versatile reporter mouse that allows conditional deletion of IFN-␤ and undisturbed detection of IFN-␤ induction in vivo using firefly luciferase as a reporter.…”
