Interferon‐γ induces reactive oxygen species and endoplasmic reticulum stress at the hepatic apoptosis

Abstract: Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) induces cell-cycle arrest and p53-independent apoptosis in primary cultured hepatocytes. However, the detailed mechanism, including regulating molecules, is still unclear. In this study, we found that IFN-gamma induced generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in primary hepatocytes and that pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (PDTC), an anti-oxidant reagent, completely suppressed IFN-gamma-induced hepatic apoptosis. PDTC blocked apoptosis downstream from IRF-1 and upstream from caspase a… Show more

“…It is also known that UPR can activate proapoptotic gene expression (such as that of GADD153), which in turn can induce infected cells to undergo apoptosis (23,33,61). Expression levels of GADD153 were increased only in rSV5V⌬C-infected cells (consistent with the induction of apoptosis seen in rSV5V⌬C-infected cells).…”

“…This induction may be due to expression of interferon-g induced during ts1 infection, as demonstrated by recent publications that either interferon-g alone or in concert with TNF-a, is capable of activating the transcription of caspase-12 gene as well as the processing of caspase-12. 49,50 Previous studies have shown that the ER Ca 2 þ ATPase inhibitor Thapsigarin, or Ca 2 þ ionopores induce transcriptional activation of GADD153/ CHOP by elevating intracellular Ca 2 þ . 35,51 We therefore attempted to dissect the mechanism of induction of ER stress signaling pathway in ts1-infected brainstems by investigating Ca 2 þ signaling pathways.…”

“…Endoplasmic reticulum stress and heart failure Various stimuli, such as hypoxia [132,133] , Ang II stimulation [134] , oxidative stress [135] and inflammatory factors [136] , have been proposed to trigger ERS during heart failure (HF). However, the role of ERS in heart failure is still in dispute.…”
