|
Here the 2A was flanked by sequences encoding the p35 and p40 polypeptides of the heterodimeric cytokine to mediate their cleavage.
|

|
The presence of IL-12 markedly influenced the level of IFNg secreted by these cells, and although IL-12 induced IFNg production in the absence of antigenic stimulation, IFNg production was accelerated and augmented in response to IL-12 and antigen.
|
| 5 |
9656442
|
Analysis of the T cell subsets by flow cytometry showed that CD4+ T cells comprised the largest contributors to IFNg production.
|

|
In addition, the cytokine profiles support the T1rT2 differentiation with these immunizations, in that oxidized mannan antigen gives IFNg, IL-2 and IL-12 production, whereas in the absence of oxidization, IL-4 and not the other cytokines is produced.

We studied the expression of IFN-gamma, IL-2, IL-10, and IL-12 in the brains of SJL/J mice, B10.S mice, and the two lines of congenic mice during the first 2 wk following inoculation.
|
| 8 |
10358183
|
We found a greater expression of IFN-gamma and IL-2 mRNA in the brains of B10.S mice compared with those of SJL/J mice.
|
| 9 |
10358183
|
Also, the ratio of IL-12 to IL-10 mRNA levels was higher in B10.S mice.

For this purpose, DC were enriched from blood of healthy donors by the use of the adherence method, and expression of surface molecules and intracellular IFN-g, IL-10, IL-12 and IL-15 was studied by flow cytometry.
|
| 11 |
11022132
|
Enriched blood DC expressed higher levels of IFN-g, IL-12 and IL-15, compared to whole mononuclear cells (MNC) incubated for the same time.
|
| 12 |
11022132
|
Expression of IFN-g and IL-12 was confined to the mature CD83+CD11c+ DC subset.
|
| 13 |
11022132
|
Enriched DC from females' blood displayed higher levels of CD80, IL-10 and IL-15.
|
| 14 |
11022132
|
Taken together, enriched blood DC spontaneously express larger amounts of IFN-g, IL-12 and IL-15 than MNC.
|
| 15 |
11022132
|
Sex differences in expression of CD80, IL-10 and IL-15 may have a modulatory influence on immune responses in males and females.

Oral terbutaline differentially affects cytokine (IL-10, IL-12, TNF, IFNg) release in multiple sclerosis patients and controls.
|
| 18 |
12417450
|
In this study, we investigated the effects of terbutaline (5 mg) on IL-10, IL-12, IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha production in whole blood stimulation cultures.
|
| 19 |
12417450
|
IL-10 and IL-12 production were significantly enhanced in controls but not in MS patients (p=0.03 and p=0.001).
|
| 20 |
12417450
|
We conclude that administration of terbutaline induces anti-inflammatory (IL-10) as well as IL-12 protein production in healthy controls but not in MS patients.
|

|
The results obtained suggest that it is expedient for complex therapy of surgical sepsis to include immunocorrection aimed at the weakening of immunosuppresive action of antiinflammatory mediators and shift of the balance towards the reinforcement of activity of proinflammatory ones (IL-12, IL-1) and Th-1 cytokines (IL-2, IFN-g).
|

|
In addition, ginsan induced the endogenous production of cytokines such as Il1, Il6, Ifng and Il12, which are required for hematopoietic recovery, and was able to enhance Th1 function while interfering with the Th2 response in irradiated mice.

Chromosomal locations of 19 horse immunity-related loci (CASP1, CD14, EIF5A, FCER1A, IFNG, IL12A, IL12B, IL12RB2, IL1A, IL23A, IL4, IL6, MMP7, MS4A2, MYD88, NOS2A, PTGS2, TFRC and TLR2) were determined by fluorescence in situ hybridization.
|
| 25 |

Previous studies have determined that Slc11a1 was an excellent candidate gene for Ses1.
|
| 27 |
16622216
|
Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR revealed an increase in Th1 cytokine (Ifng and Il12) and Th1-specific transcription factor Tbx21 expression during infection in both the 129S6 and 129S6-Slc11a1(tm1Mcg) strains.
|
| 28 |
16622216
|
However, the expression of Gata3, a transcription factor involved in Th2 polarization, Cd28, and Il4 was markedly increased in Slc11a1-deficient mice during infection, suggesting a predominant Th2 phenotype in 129S6-Slc11a1(tm1Mcg) animals following S. enterica serovar Enteritidis infection.

Interleukin 12 (IL-12) is a major inducer of interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) and the principal mediator of T helper 1 (Th1) differentiation.
|
| 30 |
16627761
|
To identify IL-12-regulated genes, which might contribute to Th1 differentiation and IFNG regulation, we employed microarray analysis.
|
| 31 |
16627761
|
Thus, we conclude that IL-12 induction of furin might represent a new aspect of IFN-gamma regulation and control of Th1 differentiation.
|

|
Messenger RNA (mRNA) transcript levels for the IL2, IL8, and IL1RN genes were significantly downregulated across the time course of infection in both breeds.
|
| 33 |
16985010
|
There was an early increase in transcripts for genes encoding proinflammatory mediators (IFNG, IL1A, TNF, and IL12) in N'Dama by 14 days postinfection (dpi) compared with preinfection levels that was not detected in the susceptible Boran breed.

Seven genes identified by suppression subtractive hybridization as up-regulated in the mesenteric lymph nodes at 24h (h) post-inoculation (p.i.) in serovar Choleraesuis-infected pigs (ARPC2, CCT7, HSPH1, LCP1, PTMA, SDCBP, VCP) and three genes in serovar Typhimurium-infected pigs (CD47/IAP, CXCL10, SCARB2) were analyzed by real-time PCR at 8h, 24 h, 48 h, 7 days (d) and 21 d p.i.
|
| 35 |
17337057
|
(IFNG, IL12A, IL4, IL8, CSF2) coincided with extended transcriptional activation throughout the 21 d infection (IFNG, INDO, SOCS1, STAT1, IL1B, IL6, IL8, SLC11A1).
|
| 36 |
17337057
|
The serovar Typhimurium-infected swine presented a more transient induction of immune-related genes (IFNG, INDO, IRF1, SOCS1, STAT1, IL1B, IL8, SLC11A1) early in the infection (24-48 h) followed by a significant repression of IL12A, IL12B, IL4, IL8 and CSF2.

Association of polymorphisms in IL-12/IFN-gamma pathway genes with susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis in Indonesia.
|
| 38 |
17392024
|
Upon infection with mycobacteria the IL-12/IFN-gamma axis plays an essential role in the activation of cell-mediated immunity required for the elimination of pathogens.
|
| 39 |
17392024
|
Mutations in genes of the IL-12/IFN-gamma axis are known to cause extreme susceptibility to infection with environmental mycobacteria, and subtle variations in these genes may influence susceptibility to more virulent mycobacteria.
|
| 40 |
17392024
|
We analyzed the distribution of polymorphisms in four essential genes from the IL-12/IFN-gamma axis, IL12B, IL12RB1, IFNG and IFNGR1, in 382 pulmonary tuberculosis patients and 437 healthy controls from an endemic region in Jakarta, Indonesia.
|
| 41 |
17392024
|
Six functional SNPs (-2C>T, 467G>A, 641A>G, 1312C>T, 1573G>A, 1781G>A) in IL12RB1, an IL12B promoter insertion/deletion polymorphism and CA repeats in IFNG and IFNGR1 were analyzed in the cohort.
|
| 42 |
17392024
|
The IFNGR1 allele CA(12) (p=0.004) and genotype CA(12)/CA(12) (p=0.01; OR 0.5) were associated with protection from pulmonary tuberculosis.

Polymorphisms of interferon-gamma, interleukin-10, and interleukin-12 genes in myasthenia gravis.
|
| 44 |
17509455
|
To assess the involvement of polymorphisms in genetic susceptibility to myasthenia gravis (MG), this study analyzed four polymorphisms of interferon (IFN)-gamma, interleukin (IL)-10, and IL-12 genes in 115 patients and 204 healthy controls (HC).
|
| 45 |
17509455
|
IFNG +874T carriers were less frequent in MG, in patients with anti-acetylcholine receptor (AChR) (63%) and anti-titin (56.2%) antibodies compared with HC (p = 0.01 for all, OR: 0.5, 0.5, and 0.4, respectively).
|
| 46 |
17509455
|
The presence of thymoma was also associated with lower frequency of IFNG +874T allele (p = 0.018, OR = 0.34).

The IL-4/IL-13/Stat6 signalling pathway promotes luminal mammary epithelial cell development.
|
| 48 |
17611223
|
The Th1/Th2 cytokine milieu is a key paradigm in lineage commitment, and IL-4 (Il4), IL-13 (Il13) and Stat6 are important mediators of Th2 development.
|
| 49 |
17611223
|
Thus, the Th1 cytokines IL-12 (Il12), interferon gamma (INFgamma; also known as Ifng) and Tnfalpha are downregulated concomitantly with the upregulation of the Th2 cytokines IL-4, IL-13 and IL-5 (Il5) as epithelial cells commit to the luminal lineage.
|
| 50 |
17611223
|
Moreover, we show that Th2 cytokines play a crucial role in mammary gland development in vivo, because differentiation and alveolar morphogenesis are reduced in both Stat6 and IL-4/IL-13 doubly deficient mice during pregnancy.
|
| 51 |
17715431
|
The proportions of CD4(+) and CD8(+) cells were unchanged, but the number of gamma delta T cells was increased by coculture with luteal cells.
|
| 52 |
17715431
|
The concentrations of interferon-gamma (IFNG) and interleukin 10 (IL10) were increased in luteal cell-T cell cocultures, whereas IL4 was undetectable, and IL12 was barely detectable in culture medium.

Interleukin (IL)-12, IL-2, interferon-gamma gene polymorphisms in subacute sclerosing panencephalitis patients.
|
| 54 |
17994425
|
Interleukin (IL)-2 -330 (rs2069 762) and +160 (rs2069 763), IL-12 p40 3' UTR (rs3213113), and interferon (IFN)-gamma +874 (rs2430561) polymorphisms are screened by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and PCR-sequence-specific priming (SSP) methods in 87 SSPE patients and 106 healthy controls (HCs) as candidate genes of susceptibility.
|

|
Interleukin-12 is required for Th1 cell differentiation, which is characterized by the production of interferon-gamma.
|
| 56 |
18413324
|
We investigated 21 markers in IL12-related genes, including IL12A and IL12B encoding the two IL-12 (IL12p70) subunits, IL12p35 and IL12p40.
|
| 57 |
18413324
|
These results, together with the findings from immunological studies of low interferon-gamma and IL-12 levels in CM, support a protective role for the Th1 pathway in CM.

Janus-kinase-3-dependent signals induce chromatin remodeling at the Ifng locus during T helper 1 cell differentiation.
|
| 59 |
18549798
|
Differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells into T helper type 1 (Th1) effector cells requires both T cell receptor (TCR) signaling and cytokines such as interleukin-12 and interferon gamma (IFN-gamma).
|
| 60 |
18549798
|
Here, we report that a third cytokine signal, mediated by the Janus family tyrosine kinase 3 (Jak3) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) pathway, is also required for Th1 cell differentiation.
|
| 61 |
18549798
|
In the absence of Jak3-dependent signals, naive CD4+ T cells proliferate robustly but produce little IFN-gamma after Th1 cell polarization in vitro.
|
| 62 |
18549798
|
This defect is not due to reduced activation of STAT1 or STAT4 or to impaired upregulation of the transcription factor T-bet.
|
| 63 |
18549798
|
Instead, we find that T-bet binding to the Ifng promoter is greatly diminished in the absence of Jak3-dependent signals, correlating with a decrease in Ifng promoter accessibility and histone acetylation.
|
| 64 |
18549798
|
These data indicate that Jak3 regulates epigenetic modification and chromatin remodeling of the Ifng locus during Th1 cell differentiation.
|
| 65 |
19464989
|
In this issue of Immunity, Schulz et al. (2009) use mathematical modeling to elucidate a signaling network controlling Ifng gene expression, thereby showing the importance of an Interleukin-12-dependent, Interferon-gamma-independent second phase of inducing the transcription factor T-bet.

IL-17 produced by neutrophils regulates IFN-gamma-mediated neutrophil migration in mouse kidney ischemia-reperfusion injury.
|
| 67 |
20038794
|
The IL-23/IL-17 and IL-12/IFN-gamma cytokine pathways have a role in chronic autoimmunity, which is considered mainly a dysfunction of adaptive immunity.
|
| 68 |
20038794
|
We used a mouse model of acute kidney ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) to test the hypothesis that early production of IL-23 and IL-12 following IRI activates downstream IL-17 and IFN-gamma signaling pathways and promotes kidney inflammation.
|
| 69 |
20038794
|
Deficiency in IL-23, IL-17A, or IL-17 receptor (IL-17R) and mAb neutralization of CXCR2, the p19 subunit of IL-23, or IL-17A attenuated neutrophil infiltration in acute kidney IRI in mice.
|
| 70 |
20038794
|
Activation of the IL-12/IFN-gamma pathway and NKT cells by administering alpha-galactosylceramide-primed bone marrow-derived DCs increased IFN-gamma production following moderate IRI in WT mice but did not exacerbate injury or enhance IFN-gamma production in either Il17a-/- or Il17r-/- mice, which suggested that IL-17 signaling was proximal to IFN-gamma signaling.
|
| 71 |
20038794
|
This was confirmed by the finding that IFN-gamma administration reversed the protection seen in Il17a-/- mice subjected to IRI, whereas IL-17A failed to reverse protection in Ifng-/- mice.
|
| 72 |
20038794
|
These results demonstrate that the innate immune component of kidney IRI requires dual activation of the IL-12/IFN-gamma and IL-23/IL-17 signaling pathways and that neutrophil production of IL-17A is upstream of IL-12/IFN-gamma.
|
| 73 |
20213229
|
Polymorphisms in the genes of IL-lA, IL-lB, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IFN-G, TGF-beta, TNF-alpha, and of the cytokine receptors IL-lR, IL-IRA, IL-4RA were investigated.

|
APO-E and ACE gene polymorphisms were carried out in the patient's group only to evaluate a possible association with known genetic risk factors for AD.
|
| 75 |
20213229
|
A highly significant presence of some alleles belonging to anti-inflammatory cytokine genes was found; particularly the C allele for the -590 promoter and T allele for the -1098 promoter of IL-4 appeared in a significantly higher percentage as compared with controls (P < 0.0006 and P < 0.0005, respectively), while a lesser significance was observed for the allele C of the -819 promoter of IL-10 (P < 0.03).
|
| 76 |
20213229
|
Finally, in the group of demented patients for the APO-E gene we found a statistically significant presence of the E4 allele, whereas no difference was found for the polymorphisms of the ACE gene.

|
The transcription factor GATA3 actively represses RUNX3 protein-regulated production of interferon-gamma.
|
| 78 |
20399120
|
The transcription factor GATA3 is crucial for the differentiation of naive CD4(+) T cells into T helper 2 (Th2) cells.
|
| 79 |
20399120
|
Here, we show that deletion of Gata3 allowed the appearance of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma)-producing cells in the absence of interleukin-12 (IL-12) and IFN-gamma.
|
| 80 |
20399120
|
Such IFN-gamma production was transcription factor T-bet independent.
|
| 81 |
20399120
|
Another T-box-containing transcription factor Eomes, but not T-bet, was induced both in GATA3-deficient CD4(+) T cells differentiated under Th2 cell conditions and in Th2 cells with enforced Runx3 expression, contributing to IFN-gamma production.
|
| 82 |
20399120
|
GATA3 overexpression blocked Runx3-mediated Eomes induction and IFN-gamma production, and GATA3 protein physically interacted with Runx3 protein.
|
| 83 |
20399120
|
Furthermore, we found that Runx3 directly bound to multiple regulatory elements of the Ifng gene and that blocking Runx3 function in either Th1 or GATA3-deficient "Th2" cells results in diminished IFN-gamma production by these cells.
|
| 84 |
20399120
|
Thus, the Runx3-mediated pathway, actively suppressed by GATA3, induces IFN-gamma production in a STAT4- and T-bet-independent manner.
|

IκBζ is essential for natural killer cell activation in response to IL-12 and IL-18.
|
| 86 |
20876105
|
Analysis of Nfkbiz(-/-) mice revealed that IκBζ was essential for the production of IFN-γ production and cytotoxic activity in NK cells in response to IL-12 and/or IL-18 stimulation.
|
| 87 |
20876105
|
IL-12/IL-18-mediated gene induction was profoundly impaired in Nfkbiz(-/-) NK cells.
|
| 88 |
20876105
|
Whereas the phosphorylation of STAT4 was normally induced by IL-12 stimulation, STAT4 was not recruited to the Ifng gene regions in Nfkbiz(-/-) NK cells.
|
| 89 |
20876105
|
Acetylation of histone 3 K9 on Ifng regions was also abrogated in Nfkbiz(-/-) NK cells.
|
| 90 |
20876105
|
IκBζ was recruited on the proximal promoter region of the Ifng gene, and overexpression of IκBζ together with IL-12 activated the Ifng promoter.
|
| 91 |
21463712
|
In the current study we investigated genotype variants pertaining to five cytokine genes namely IFNG, TNFA, IL4, IL10 and IL12 in the north Indian population with active pulmonary tuberculosis (APTB) and correlated the serum cytokine levels with the corresponding genotypes.
|
| 92 |
21463712
|
Compared to HC mean serum IFN-γ, IL-12, IL-4, and IL-10 levels were higher in APTB (p = 0.3661, p = 0.0186, p = 0.003, p = 0.7, respectively).
|
| 93 |
21463712
|
In contrast the genotypes of the selected rsIDs in the TNFA, IL12 and IL10 genes showed significant association with the varying serum levels of corresponding cytokines.
|
| 94 |
21463712
|
The variant of the TNFA gene at rs3093662, the IL12 gene at rs3213094 and rs3212220 and the IL10 gene at rs3024498 did show a strong indication to be of relevance to the immunity to tuberculosis.
|
| 95 |
21562466
|
Untreated mice showed allograft rejection within 14 days, with graft necrosis, infiltration of neutrophils and macrophages and displayed high percentages of CD8+ T cells in the spleens, which were associated with high serum levels of IL-12, IFN-g and TNF-α.
|
| 96 |
21562466
|
As expected, mice treated with therapeutic doses of CsA (15 mg/kg) did not show allograft rejection within the follow-up period of 30 days and displayed the lowest levels of IL-12, IFN-g and TNF-α as well as a reduction in CD8+ lymphocytes.
|
| 97 |
21562466
|
In contrast, mice treated with consecutive minimal doses of CsA (5×10(-55) mg/kg) displayed an acute graft rejection as early as one to five days after skin allograft; they also displayed necrosis and strong inflammatory infiltration that was associated with high levels of IL-12, IFN-g and TNF-α.
|
| 98 |
22052597
|
A total of 10 single nucleotide polymorphisms distributed in 6 genes (TNFRSF1A, IL12A, IL12B, IFNG, IL4, and IL10) were genotyped in 214 high-responders [hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs) ≥1,000 mIU/ml] and 107 low-responders (anti-HBs: 10-99 mIU/ml).
|
| 99 |
22052597
|
In addition, a significant gene-gene interaction was found: the frequency of the combined genotypes IL12A rs2243115 TT and IL12B rs17860508 CTCTAA/CTCTAA was significantly higher in the low-response group than in the high-response group (P = 0.008, odds ratio = 2.19, 95% confidence interval = 1.23-3.93).
|
| 100 |
22052597
|
These findings suggest that polymorphisms in the IL12A and IL12B genes might play an important role jointly in determining the response to hepatitis B vaccination.
|
| 101 |
23071669
|
These included five that were common to both ages (TNF, HNF4A, IL15, Progesterone, and YWHAZ), and others that were unique to 2 weeks (e.g.
|
| 102 |
23071669
|
MYC/MYCN, TGFB1, and IL2) and to 4 weeks (e.g.
|
| 103 |
23071669
|
IFNG, beta-estradiol, p53, NFKB, AKT, PRKCA, IL12, and HLA-C).
|
| 104 |
23071669
|
Based on the literature, genes that may play a role in regulating metabolic pathways at 2 weeks include Myc and HNF4A, and at 4 weeks, beta-estradiol, p53, Akt, HNF4A and AR.
|
| 105 |
23106526

The expression of cytokines mRNA, namely Ifng, Il2,Il4,Il10 and Il12, was quantitated by real-time PCR.
|
| 106 |
23106526
|
Moreover, Damghan strain elicited higher expression levels of Ifng and Il2 mRNA and the highest ratio of Ifng/Il4 mRNA expression compared with the other strains at 40 h and 8 weeks post-infection.

Expression levels of IFNG, IL2, IL12, IL4, and IL10 genes were estimated before infection and at 4, 8, and 12 MPI in stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of infected and control kids.
|

|
The study demonstrated the expression of IFNG and IL2 as classic Th1-like pro-inflammatory signatures; whereas, IL10 exhibited itself as classical Th2-like signature.
|
| 113 |

|
The study also reports unexpected lowered expression of the IL12 gene simultaneously with increased expression of IFNG, lowered expression of the IL2 gene (compared to IFNG), and suppressed expression of the IL4.

We previously reported that foetuses congenitally infected with Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of Chagas disease, mount an adult-like parasite-specific CD8(+) T-cell response, producing IFN-g, and present an altered NK cell phenotype, possibly reflecting a post-activation state supported by the ability of the parasite to trigger IFN-g synthesis by NK cells in vitro.

Twenty-four hours co-culture of cord blood mononuclear cells with T. cruzi trypomastigotes and IL-15 induced high accumulation of IFN-g transcripts and IFN-g release.

The CD56(bright) NK cell subset was the major IFN-g responding subset (up to 70% IFN-g-positive cells), while CD56(dim) NK cells produced IFN-g to a lesser extent.

This work highlights the ability of T. cruzi to trigger a robust IFN-g response by IL-15-sensitized human neonatal NK cells and the important role of monocytes in it, which might perhaps partially compensate for the neonatal defects of DCs.

|
It suggests that monocyte- and IL-12- dependent IFN-g release by NK cells is a potentially important innate immune response pathway allowing T. cruzi to favour a type 1 immune response in neonates.

The serum concentrations of interferon-γ (IFN-γ), interleukin-4 (IL-4), and interleukin-12 (IL-12) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
|
| 128 |
24301942
|
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in both groups were isolated and incubated with or without recombinant human IL-12 (rhIL-12) for 48 h, and the concentrations of IFN-g and IL-4 in the supernatant were measured by ELISA.
|
| 129 |
