Effect of IFN-γ on gene expression of bone marrow-derived macrophages

ABSTRACT: Here, we report that IFN-γ derived from CD8+ T cells promotes the transcription of ACOD1 in macrophages and the subsequent production of itaconate. To explore the molecular mechanism by which IFN-γ induces ACOD1 in macrophages, we analysed the transcriptome of IFN-γ-treated BMDMs by RNA-seq. Enrichment analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) revealed that the Janus kinase (JAK)-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway was significantly enriched in IFN-γ-treated BMDMs compared with the control group.

Project description:Qi2013 - IL-6 and IFN crosstalk model This model [BIOMD0000000544] describes the crosstalk between IFN-gamma and IL-6 induced signalling; it aims to outline mechanisms and factors that may control the interaction between both signalling pathways, discussing a role of heterodimer formation in signalling dysfunction. To account for the possibility of different IFNR and gp130 binding sites for STAT1 and STAT3, model 1 [BIOMD0000000543] assumes that there is no competition between STAT1 and STAT3 for the receptor complexes (includes two extra reactions). The reverse of this is true in model 2 [BIOMD0000000544] where it generally is assumed that there is competition between STAT1 and STAT3 for the receptor complexes. This model is described in the article: Elucidating the crosstalk mechanism between IFN-gamma and IL-6 via mathematical modelling.

BMC Bioinformatics 2013; 14: 41 Abstract: BACKGROUND: Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) are multifunctional cytokines that regulate immune responses, cell proliferation, and tumour development and progression, which frequently have functionally opposing roles. The cellular responses to both cytokines are activated via the Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway. During the past 10 years, the crosstalk mechanism between the IFN-gamma and IL-6 pathways has been studied widely and several biological hypotheses have been proposed, but the kinetics and detailed crosstalk mechanism remain unclear. RESULTS: Using established mathematical models and new experimental observations of the crosstalk between the IFN-gamma and IL-6 pathways, we constructed a new crosstalk model that considers three possible crosstalk levels: (1) the competition between STAT1 and STAT3 for common receptor docking sites; (2) the mutual negative regulation between SOCS1 and SOCS3; and (3) the negative regulatory effects of the formation of STAT1/3 heterodimers. A number of simulations were tested to explore the consequences of cross-regulation between the two pathways. The simulation results agreed well with the experimental data, thereby demonstrating the effectiveness and correctness of the model. CONCLUSION: In this study, we developed a crosstalk model of the IFN-gamma and IL-6 pathways to theoretically investigate their cross-regulation mechanism. The simulation experiments showed the importance of the three crosstalk levels between the two pathways. In particular, the unbalanced competition between STAT1 and STAT3 for IFNR and gp130 led to preferential activation of IFN-gamma and IL-6, while at the same time the formation of STAT1/3 heterodimers enhanced preferential signal transduction by sequestering a fraction of the activated STATs. The model provided a good explanation of the experimental observations and provided insights that may inform further research to facilitate a better understanding of the cross-regulation mechanism between the two pathways.
