The interferon-stimulated response element and a kappa B site mediate synergistic induction of murine IP-10 gene transcription by IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha

Abstract

The present study investigates mechanisms involved in cooperation between IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha to promote transcription from the IP-10 gene in NIH 3T3 cells. IFN-gamma synergistically enhanced TNF-alpha-induced levels of IP-10 mRNA, whereas levels of JE (MCP-1) or KC (GRO/MGSA) mRNA induced by TNF-alpha were unaffected by IFN-gamma. The cooperation between IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha for induction of IP-10 mRNA was independent of de novo protein synthesis and mediated at least in part by increased transcription. Transient transfection analysis with a 243-bp fragment flanking the transcription start site of the murine IP-10 gene indicated that synergy between the two stimuli was dependent upon occupancy of at least two of three critical regulatory sequence elements: an IFN-stimulated response element (ISRE) and one of two kappa B sites. IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha independently activated nuclear factors capable of specific interaction with the ISRE and kappa B sites, respectively. IFN-gamma induced two ISRE binding complexes, one of which was protein synthesis independent, appeared within 15 min of stimulation, and contained p91 or signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 1. TNF-alpha induced only one ISRE binding activity, which was dependent upon protein synthesis. TNF-alpha also induced kappa B binding activity that was composed of NF-kappa B1 (p50) and RelA (p65) whereas IFN-gamma had no detectable effect on kappa B binding activity. Together these results indicate that the highly synergistic transcriptional activation of the IP-10 gene by IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha involves the cooperation between factors that are independently activated by the two stimuli and that bind to independent sites.
