Iron regulates T-lymphocyte sensitivity to the IFN-γ/STAT1 signaling pathway in vitro and in vivo
31 Dec 2004
Abstract excerpt
The refractoriness of T cells to the interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) pathway, which shields them from the antiproliferative effect of IFN-gamma, is attributed mainly to down-regulation of the IFN-gammaR2 signaling chain. However, the mechanisms responsible for this down-regulation are unclear. Here we show that iron uptake mediated by the transferrin...
