Type I IFNs Downregulate Myeloid Cell IFN-γ Receptor by Inducing Recruitment of an Early Growth Response 3/NGFI-A Binding Protein 1 Complex That Silences ifngr1 Transcription
9 Aug 2013
Abstract excerpt
The ability of type I IFNs to increase susceptibility to certain bacterial infections correlates with downregulation of myeloid cell surface IFNGR, the receptor for the type II IFN (IFN-γ), and reduced myeloid cell responsiveness to IFN-γ. In this study, we show that the rapid reductions in mouse and human myeloid cell surface IFNGR1 expression that occur in response to type I IFN treatment reflect a rapid...
