IL-13 induced transforming growth factor-beta1 promoter activity in IL-13Ralpha2-positive tumor cells and in cells engineered to express IL-13Ralpha2 but not in IL-13Ralpha2-negative or RNA interference knockdown cells. c-Jun and c-Fos of the AP-1 family of nuclear factors were activated by IL-13 only in IL-13Ralpha2-positive cells.
