RFXB and its splice variant RFXBSV mediate the antagonism between IFNγ and TGFβ on COL1A2 transcription in vascular smooth muscle cells
22 May 2009
Abstract excerpt
Cytokines secreted by infiltrating immune cells during atherogenesis modulate vascular remodeling. One exemplary event is the antagonism between transformed growth factor (TGF-beta) and interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) on the transcriptional control of type I collagen gene (COL1A2). Previously we have reported that IFN-gamma up-regulates regulatory factor for X-box B (RFXB) to repress collagen transcription while...
