IRF9 is a Key Factor for Eliciting the Antiproliferative Activity of IFN-α

Abstract: A number of tumors are still resistant to the antiproliferative activity of human interferon (IFN)-α. The Janus kinases/Signal Transducers and Activators of Transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway plays an important role in initial IFN signaling. In order to enhance the antiproliferative activity of IFN-α, it is important to elucidate which factors in the JAK-STAT pathway play a key role in eliciting this activity. In human ovarian adenocarcinoma OVCAR3 cells sensitive to both IFN-α and -γ, only IFN regulatory factor… Show more

“…In contrast to previous work (42), we have excluded a role for PKR in the induction of IFNAR1-dependent necroptosis. Further work will be necessary to elucidate the exact mechanism by which IRF9/ISGF3 sustains the activation of Rip3 at later time points, but here we add to recent work showing that IRF9 specifically mediates the antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects of IFN-α (43).…”

“…Therefore, the small RNA interference-induced changes in ovarian hormones release and reception could be used for control of other, non-secretory ovarian functions. Some examples of control of ovarian proliferation and apoptosis through small RNA targeting hormones, growth factors (Rayhman et al, 2008;Li et al, 2009;Pierre et al, 2009;Wang et al, 2009b) and their receptors (Tsuda et al, 2005;Lu et al, 2008;Rayhman et al, 2008;Yotsumoto et al, 2008;Bruegmann et al, 2009;Chan et al, 2009;Donahue et al, 2009;Paragh et al, 2009;Pierre et al, 2009;Tian et al, 2009;Tsuno et al, 2009;Wang et al, 2009b) were present above.…”
