Disease relevance of Irf1

  • In contrast, mice deficient for IRF1 were not able to produce nitric oxide, but they efficiently controlled Listeria in vivo and in vitro [1].
  • Our results suggest that IFNgamma gene therapy maybe effective in malignant diseases for which DNA tumor viruses are etiologic agents and that antitumor actions of IRF-1/ICSBP can be exploited therapeutically to circumvent adverse clinical effects associated with IFN therapy [2].
  • DSS or TNBS led to a dramatic increase in lethality and colitis severity in IRF-1 KO compared with WT mice [3].
  • These data indicate that different virulence factors from P. aeruginosa induce pulmonary inflammation in vivo and that IRF-1 is involved in some of the cytokine responses to LPS and ETA [4].
  • IgG and C3 deposition as well as glomerulonephritis were decreased in IRF-1(-/-) mice at 26 wk of age compared to the IRF-1(+/+) mice [5].
 

High impact information on Irf1

  • The transcriptional activator interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF-1) and its antagonistic repressor IRF-2 are regulators of the interferon (IFN) system and of cell growth [6].
  • Here we report that embryonic fibroblasts (EFs) from mice with a null mutation in the IRF-1 gene (IRF-1-/- mice) can be transformed by expression of an activated c-Ha-ras oncogene [6].
  • Cellular commitment to oncogene-induced transformation or apoptosis is dependent on the transcription factor IRF-1 [6].
  • The transformed phenotype of ras-expressing IRF-1-/- EFs could be suppressed by the expression of the IRF-1 cDNA [6].
  • A profound reduction of TCR alpha beta+CD4-CD8+ T cells in IRF-1-deficient mice, with a thymocyte developmental defect, reveals a critical role for IRF-1 in T cell development [7].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Irf1

 

Biological context of Irf1

  • In addition, overexpression of a growth-suppressive transcription factor, Irf1, a putative key molecule in the p53-independent pathway after DNA damage, was also observed, although the relation to the loss of G1 arrest could not be elucidated [12].
  • Interferon regulatory factor 1 is required for mouse Gbp gene activation by gamma interferon [13].
  • Interferon regulatory factor-1 up-regulates angiotensin II type 2 receptor and induces apoptosis [14].
  • Complex formation of the interferon (IFN) consensus sequence-binding protein with IRF-1 is essential for murine macrophage IFN-gamma-induced iNOS gene expression [15].
  • Furthermore, we observed using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction that the IRF-1 mRNA expression was more abundant in confluent cells than growing cells, whereas IRF-2 expression did not change with R3T3 cell growth [16].
