IRAK1 Serves as a Novel Regulator Essential for Lipopolysaccharide-induced Interleukin-10 Gene Expression

Abstract excerpt

Being one of the key kinases downstream of Toll-like receptors, IRAK1 has initially thought to be responsible for NFkappaB activation. Yet IRAK1 knock-out mice still exhibit NFkappaB activation upon lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge, suggesting that IRAK1 may play other un-characterized function. In this report, we show that IRAK1 is mainly involved in Stat3 activation and subsequent interleukin-10 (IL-10) gene...
