"Moreover, we observed that suppression of USP18 in ependymal cells treated with IFN significantly increased cell death, including pyroptosis, and decreased proliferation."

reach
"In line with this hypothesis, double knockdown of USP18 and DP5, PUMA or Bim protects against USP18 knockdown induced beta cell death."

reach
"One recent study showed that USP18 inhibition induces pyroptotic cell death (56)."

reach
"Our results demonstrate that I60N retains deISGylase activity, and the observed accumulation of ISGylated proteins can be decoupled from the loss of catalytic function.Partial impairments in scaffold function by the I60N mutation were correlated with intermediate levels of ISGylation and IFN sensitivity, implicating scaffold function as the primary mechanism by which USP18 loss promotes tumor intrinsic growth arrest and cell death."

reach
"USP18 inhibition also increased apoptotic cell death by nearly 4-fold in primary rat beta cells after 48h of treatment with IFNalpha (XREF_FIG)."
