Sentenece the gene occurs

27052162IFN signaling-deficient melanocytes expressing activated Braf do not exhibit senescence and develop aggressive melanomas
27052162Restoration of IFN signaling in IFN-deficient melanoma cells induces senescence and suppresses melanoma progression
27052162Additional data from human melanoma patients and mouse transplanted tumor models suggest the importance of non-cell-autonomous IFN signaling
27052162Inactivation of the IFN pathway is mediated by the IFN receptor IFNAR1 downregulation that invariably occurs during melanoma development
27052162These results suggest that IFN signaling is an important tumor-suppressive pathway that inhibits melanoma development and progression and argue for targeting IFNAR1 downregulation to prevent metastatic disease and improve the efficacy of molecularly target and immune-targeted melanoma therapies
26046815Furthermore, recent studies demonstrated that IFN also restrict proliferation of damaged cells by inducing cell senescence
26046815Here we investigated the subsequent role of IFN in elimination of the senescent cells
26046815Our studies demonstrate that endogenous IFN produced by already senescent cells contribute to increased expression of the natural killer (NK) receptor ligands, including MIC-A and ULBP2
26046815Furthermore, neutralization of endogenous IFN or genetic ablation of its receptor chain IFNAR1 compromises the recognition of senescent cells and their clearance in vitro and in vivo
26046815We discuss the role of IFN in protecting the multi-cellular host from accumulation of damaged senescent cells and potential significance of this mechanism in human cancers
24445253Mutations in SAMHD1 cause Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome (AGS), an inflammatory disorder that shares phenotypic similarity with systemic lupus erythematosus, including activation of antiviral type 1 interferon (IFN)
24445253Knockdown of SAMHD1 by RNA interference recapitulates activation of DNA damage signalling and type 1 IFN activation
23966171There is growing evidence that many host proteins involved in innate and intrinsic immunity are regulated by SUMOylation, and that SUMO contributes to the regulatory process that governs the initiation of the type I interferon (IFN) response
23966171The tumor suppressor p53 is a modulator of the IFN response that plays a role in virus-induced apoptosis and in IFN-induced senescence
23966171Here we demonstrate that IFN treatment increases the levels of SUMOylated p53 and induces cellular senescence through a process that is partially dependent upon SUMOylation of p53
23966171Thus, our study provides evidence that IFN signaling induces p53 SUMOylation, which results in the activation of a cellular senescence program and contributes to the antiviral functions of interferon
23864729Given that human prostatic infections are associated with chronic inflammation, the development of BPH is associated with an accumulation of senescent cells with a proinflammatory phenotype, and the development of prostate cancer is associated with the loss of IFN signaling, the role of AIM2 in mediating the formation of prostatic diseases was investigated
22615843Taken together, these studies suggest that signaling through the IFN pathway might play an important role in cellular senescence
22615843This additional understanding of IFN antitumor action and mechanisms influencing tumor responsiveness or resistance appears useful in aiding further promising development of biomolecular strategies in the IFN therapy of cancer
21471287Accordingly, increased constitutive levels of IFI16 and AIM2 proteins in ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) HDFs were associated with the activation of the IFN signaling and increased levels of IL-1beta
21471287Interestingly, the knockdown of AIM2 expression in HDFs increased the basal levels of IFI16 protein and activated the IFN signaling
21471287In contrast, the knockdown of the IFI16 expression in HDFs decreased the basal and dsDNA-induced activation of the IFN signaling
21198351Several pathways have been implicated in the establishment of antiviral state in response to interferon (IFN), one of which implicates the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein
21198351PML is induced by IFN, leading to a marked increase of expression of PML isoforms and the number of PML nuclear bodies (NBs)
20016203Senescence and decreased NO production were observed in cells and several signaling pathways - such as IFN/STAT, IGF, TGF-beta, cytoskeleton rearrangement and lipid metabolism - were altered at P4, as judged from the microarray analysis
18505922By gene expression profiling, we have found that genes in the interferon (IFN) pathway were dysregulated during the spontaneous cellular immortalization of fibroblasts from Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) patients with germ-line mutations in p53
18505922IFN signaling pathway genes were down-regulated by epigenetic silencing during immortalization, and some of these same IFN-regulated genes were activated during replicative senescence
18505922Bisulfite sequencing of the promoter regions of two IFN regulatory transcription factors (IRF5 and IRF7) revealed that IRF7, but not IRF5, was epigenetically silenced by methylation of CpG islands in immortal LFS cells
18505922We conclude that the epigenetic inactivation of the IFN pathway plays a critical role in cellular immortalization, and the reactivation of IFN-regulated genes by transcription factors IRF5 and/or IRF7 is sufficient to induce cellular senescence
18505922The IFN pathway may provide valuable molecular targets for therapeutic interventions at early stages of cancer development
17981205Superimposed on this basic scheme are a shift in the CD8(+) T cell response to type I and II interferon (IFN) from anti- to pro-proliferative and transcriptional control of replicative senescence by Bmi-1, Blimp-1, and BCL6/BCL6b
16426144We found that multiple interferon (IFN) signaling pathway genes were regulated by epigenetic silencing
16426144We concluded that factor(s) additional to Stat1 (whether IFN dependent or not) are required for the immortalization of LFS fibroblasts
15208661Defects in interferon (IFN) signaling that result in loss of expression of IFN-inducible proteins are associated with cellular immortalization, an important early event in the development of human cancer
14563561Analysis of hPNPase(old-35) expression in cell lines defective in various IFN signaling molecules confirms that hPNPase(old-35) expression is dependent upon the Janus activated kinase (JAK)/signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) pathway
14563561Induction of hPNPase(old-35) by IFN treatment as well as during differentiation and senescence suggest that this gene may play a significant role in regulating cellular growth and that overlapping gene expression changes, also induced by IFN, may contribute to these important physiological processes
12473748This approach involved screening of a subtracted cDNA library prepared from human melanoma cells induced to terminally differentiate by treatment with fibroblast IFN and mezerein with mRNA derived from senescent human progeria cells
12473748Identification of hPNPase(old-35), an IFN-inducible 3'-5' RNA exonuclease, provides additional support for a relationship between IFN action and RNA processing and suggests an important role for this gene in growth control associated with terminal differentiation and cellular senescence
10049783Furthermore, the expression of mRNAs for p21/Waf1/Cip1/Sdi1, IRF-1 and IFN inducible 6-16 was higher in the telomere-reduced cells than in the parental cells
9144735Using the highest mouse IFN-beta-producing sublines, the mode of IFN secretion was examined
8376318Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) and various interferons (IFN) have potent cytostatic or cytotoxic effects on a variety of human tumor-derived cell lines
2483689Interferons (IFN) are a family of glycoproteins well known for their antiviral activity and their ability to inhibit growth and alter the behavior of various normal and transformed cell types, both in vitro and in vivo
2483689Extracts from healthy, non-virally infected keratinocyte cultures contained IFN activity as determined by viral plaque inhibition assays
2483689Further, we have demonstrated that IFN inhibits the growth of the human keratinocyte in a non-cytotoxic, reversible manner and that the keratinocytes harvested from older adult donors are significantly more sensitive to the growth inhibitory effects of IFN than are the keratinocytes of young donors
6193247The presence of a low level of interferon (IFN) activity was demonstrated in aged culture medium of primary chick embryo (CE) cells
6193247This increase was suppressed by addition of antiserum against chick IFN
6193247In contrast, anti-chick IFN serum did not inhibit the ageing effect, i
