Induces Cell Growth Inhibition by Fas-mediated Apoptosis: Requirement of STAT1 Protein for Up-Regulation of Fas and FasL Expression1Departments of General Surgery [X. X., A. S-F. C.], Medicine [J. P.], and Immunology/Microbiology [J. P., A. S-F. C.], Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois 60612, and Department of Pathology, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut 05620-8023 [X-Y. F.]
The mechanism by which IFN-
inhibits tumor cell growth has not been fully understood. Here we report that IFN-
up-regulated the expression of Fas and Fas ligand (FasL) on HT29 cells, a human colon adenocarcinoma cell line, and subsequently induced apoptosis of these cells. The kinetics of cell death in IFN-
-treated HT29 cells paralleled the increase in the levels of Fas and FasL expression. We further show that IFN-
up-regulated the expression of Fas and FasL in STAT1-transfected U3A cells but not in STAT1-deficient U3A cells. Correspondingly, IFN-
induced cell death in STAT1-transfected U3A cells but not in STAT1-deficient U3A cells. IFN-
-induced cell death was inhibited by caspase-1 inhibitors. Our results suggest that cell growth inhibition by IFN-
is due to apoptosis mediated by Fas and FasL interaction.
