The interferon regulatory factors and oncogenesis

Tanaka, Nobuyuki, Taniguchi, Tadatsugu·2000·Seminars in Cancer Biology

Abstract

We study a family of transcription factors, the interferon regulatory factors (IRFs), as originally identified in the context of the regulation of type-I interferon (IFN-alpha/beta) system. Most notably, studies on IRF-1 have revealed its remarkable functional diversity in the regulation of cellular responses of host defense, including oncogenesis. The IRF family has now expanded to nine members, and gene disruption studies have revealed critical involvement of some of the members in the regulation of cell growth and oncogenesis. In this review, we summarize our current knowledge on the involvement of members of the IRF family members, in particular, IRF-1, in oncogenesis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
