STAT1/IRF‐1 signaling pathway mediates the injurious effect of interferon‐gamma on oligodendrocyte progenitor cells
15 Jul 2009
Abstract excerpt
Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) is a pleiotropic cytokine that is critically involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory demyelinating diseases. There is strong evidence that IFN-gamma can function as a distinct and independent injurious factor to oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs). The intracellular signaling pathways leading to OPC death, however, remain poorly understood. In this study, we examined...
