Interferon Regulatory Factor 1 Marks Activated Genes and Can Induce Target Gene Expression in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
21 Nov 2014
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF-1) mediates both induction of interferons (IFNs) and responses to type I IFNs. It has been implicated as a critical mediator of inflammation in murine lupus models. In a previous study of chromatin modifications in monocytes from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), IRF-1 was implicated as being associated with increased histone acetylation in this...
