Growing evidence has demonstrated that members of TNF superfamily transduce signals after engagement with their receptors. TNF-related activation-induced cytokine (TRANCE), a member of TNF superfamily, is preferentially expressed on the surface of activated CD4(+) Th1 cells. The soluble receptor activator of NF-kappaB (RANK).Fc fusion protein suppresses IFN-gamma secretion by activated Th1 cells, but does not affect IL-4 secretion by Th2 cells. The suppressive effect on IFN-gamma secretion is observed when Th1 cells are activated by APCs, but not by immobilized anti-TCR beta mAb. In contrast, immobilized RANK.Fc fusion protein augments IFN-gamma secretion by Th1 cells, indicating the occurrence of reverse signaling through TRANCE during T cell/APC interaction. The enhanced secretion of IFN-gamma mediated via TRANCE correlates with the activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and is blocked by SB203580, a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase-specific inhibitor. Thus, in addition to its role in activating dendritic cells by binding to the receptor RANK, TRANCE itself can signal the augmentation of IFN-gamma secretion via a p38-dependent pathway, and this provides yet another example of reverse signaling by a member of TNF superfamily.

Enhanced Secretion of IFN-γ by Activated Th1 Cells Occurs Via Reverse Signaling Through TNF-Related Activation-Induced Cytokine
