MicroRNA-513 Regulates B7-H1 Translation and Is Involved in IFN-γ-Induced B7-H1 Expression in Cholangiocytes
1 Feb 2009
Abstract excerpt
Biliary epithelial cells (cholangiocytes) respond to proinflammatory cytokines such as IFN-gamma and actively participate in the regulation of biliary inflammatory response in the liver. B7-H1 (also known as CD274 or PD-L1) is a member of the B7 costimulatory molecules and plays a critical immunoregulatory role in cell-mediated immune responses. In this study, we show that resting human cholangiocytes in culture...
