A human transient expression system was used to measure the influence of simian virus 40 T antigen and adenovirus E1a proteins on the activation of alpha interferon subtype 1 (IFN-alpha 1) and IFN-beta promoters linked to the reporter chloramphenicol acetyltransferase gene. Large T-antigen production, amplified by expression plasmid replication in transfected 293 cells, was able to trans activate the IFN-beta promoter 5- to 10-fold, increasing both the constitutive and Sendai virus-induced levels of expression. Surprisingly, the previously quiescent transfected IFN-alpha 1 promoter in T-antigen-expressing cells displayed a level of inducibility similar to IFN-beta. The endogenous IFN-alpha 1 gene was also inducible to a limited extent in cells expressing T antigen. A truncated IFN-beta promoter deleted to position -37 relative to the CAP site was neither inducible nor trans activated by T antigen, suggesting that sequences required for efficient induction were also needed for trans activation. Since 293 cells express adenoviral E1a proteins, experiments were also performed in HeLa cells to assess the relative contribution of T antigen and E1a proteins to IFN trans activation. In HeLa cells, T-antigen coexpression increased the constitutive level of IFN-beta and IFN-alpha 1 promoter activity without augmenting relative inducibility. Coexpression of T antigen and E1a proteins did not have a cooperative effect on type 1 IFN expression. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DCs) respond to microbial infections by undergoing phenotypic maturation and by producing multiple cytokines. In the present study, we analyzed the ability of influenza A and Sendai viruses to induce DC maturation and activate tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), alpha/beta interferon (IFN-alpha/beta), and IFN-like interleukin-28A/B (IFN-lambda2/3) and IL-29 (IFN-lambda1) gene expression in human monocyte-derived myeloid DCs (mDC). The ability of influenza A virus to induce mDC maturation or enhance the expression of TNF-alpha, IFN-alpha/beta, interleukin-28 (IL-28), and IL-29 genes was limited, whereas Sendai virus efficiently induced mDC maturation and enhanced cytokine gene expression. Influenza A virus-induced expression of TNF-alpha, IFN-alpha, IFN-beta, IL-28, and IL-29 genes was, however, dramatically enhanced when cells were pretreated with IFN-alpha. IFN-alpha priming led to increased expression of Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3), TLR7, TLR8, MyD88, TRIF, and IFN regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) genes and enhanced influenza-induced phosphorylation and DNA binding of IRF3. Influenza A virus also enhanced the binding of NF-kappaB to the respective NF-kappaB elements of the promoters of IFN-beta and IL-29 genes. In mDC IL-29 induced MxA protein expression and possessed antiviral activity against influenza A virus, although this activity was lower than that of IFN-alpha or IFN-beta. Our results show that in human mDCs viruses can readily induce the expression of IL-28 and IL-29 genes whose gene products are likely to contribute to the host antiviral response. 相似文献
