Fulda et al., Oncogene 2002
(Neoplasms) :
Importantly,
IFNgamma induced
caspase-8 expression also in cells with inactivation of the caspase-8 gene by hypermethylation, although no direct effect of IFNgamma on the methylation status of regulatory sequences of the caspase-8 gene was found ...
Upregulation of
caspase-8 and sensitization for apoptosis by
IFNgamma was blocked by overexpression of dominant negative mutants of Stat1 or in Stat1-deficient U3A cells, while complementation of Stat1-deficient U3A cells with wild-type Stat1 restored the IFNgamma effect
Kumar et al., Cytokine 2002

Li et al., Am J Pathol 2002
:
Interferon-gamma augments CD95 ( APO-1/Fas ) and
pro-caspase-8 expression and sensitizes human vascular endothelial cells to CD95 mediated apoptosis ...
IFN-gamma also produces an
increase in expression of
pro-caspase-8 ( FLICE/MACH ) but does not significantly change expression of either Fas associated death domain (FADD) protein or cellular FLICE inhibitory protein ( cFLIP ), other proteins associated with the CD95 death inducing signaling complex ( DISC ) ... We conclude that
IFN-gamma induces sensitivity of endothelium to CD95L mediated apoptosis, and that this response may
result from increased expression of CD95 and/or
pro-caspase-8
Chung et al., Blood 2003
:
Interferon gamma (IFNgamma) acts on human erythroid colony forming cells ( ECFCs ) to up-regulate Fas, without a demonstrable change of Fas ligand (FasL) or Fas associated DD-containing protein ( FADD ) expression and
activates caspase-8 plus caspase-3, which produce apoptosis ... Because the binding of FasL to Fas is the first step of the apoptosis cascade and IFNgamma strongly up-regulates Fas expression, we added FasL ( 50 ng/mL ) to the cultures with IFNgamma to accentuate the
IFNgamma induced activation of
caspase-8 and caspase-3 plus subsequent apoptosis ... SCF ( 100 ng/mL ) clearly inhibited the
activation of caspase-8 and
caspase-3 induced by
IFNgamma and/or FasL, and it also reduced apoptosis as measured by the terminal dUTP nick-end labeling ( TUNEL ) assay

(Inflammation) :
In contrast, silencing of STAT1 did not interfere with
IFNgamma induced expression of STAT2 and
