Interferon increases the amount of USP18. 13 / 15
| 13

reach
"Like ISG15, the expression of its conjugating enzymes and USP18 is upregulated by IFN (XREF_FIG a)."

reach
"Previous studies have shown that the expression of USP18 could be rapidly induced by interferon, viral infection, and genotoxic stress XREF_BIBR."

reach
"Forty of the 71 interferon-stimulated genes, including myxovirus resistance (Mx) 1, Mx2, 2’−5’-oligoadenylate synthase-like protein 1 (Oasl1), Rsad2, nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (Nampt), interferon-stimulated gene (Isg) 15, Isg20, and ubiquitin specific peptidase 18 (Usp18), were expressed at higher levels in Mkp-1 mice than in Mkp-1 mice following E. coli infection."

reach
"To investigate whether endogenous IFN signaling induces USP18 expression during tumor development in vivo, we inoculated C57BL/6 mice with B16-GFP tumor cells."

reach
"IFNα also induced UBE1L, UBE2L6, Herc5, and USP18 expression as reported previously (Fig. 1A and B) [[10], [11], [12],[34], [35], [36]]."

reach
"It has been shown in hepatocytes that while both IFNβ1 and IFNα induce the expression of ubiquitin-specific peptidase 18 (USP18), only IFNα signaling was profoundly impacted by downregulation by USP18[MISSING/INVALID CREDENTIALS: limited to 200 char for Elsevier]"

reach
"However, USP18 expression is strongly stimulated by IFN treatment and exerts negative regulation of type I interferon signaling, which is independent of its enzymatic activity 21."

reach
"IFNβ dose-dependently increased the mRNA expression of the canonical ISGs Oasl2 and Usp18, peaking at 6 h and decreasing following 24 h, suggesting TI-IFN pathway activation (Figure 2A)."

reach
"Thus in A549 cells, ISGylation is a highly stable post-translational modification even when USP18 expression has been induced by 24 h interferon stimulation."

reach
"In these cells, USP18 is expressed following interferon stimulation, yet in distinction to other cell types, there is minimal induction of ISGylation, UBA7 and UBCH8."

reach
"ISG43 expression is induced by interferon and negatively regulated by RNase-L."

reach
"The expression of Mx2, Rsad2, Ifit3, Herc5 and Usp18, but not RnaseL and Ifitm3, was significantly induced by the IFN injection in the PBS control group."

reach
"The other tool required is a means to acutely switch off ISGylation following the accumulation of a global ISGylation signal and significant levels of USP18 following interferon stimulation."
