Interleukin-12 (IL-12) is a cytokine that plays a central role in
the control of cell-mediated immunity. We have previously shown that
transforming growth factor- 1 (TGF- ) inhibitory effects on human
primary allogeneic cytotoxicity and proliferative responses interfere
with IL-12 pathway. The present study was undertaken to further
elucidate the biochemical basis of the functional interaction between
these two cytokines and to define the site of TGF- action on the
signaling pathway activated by IL-12. Our data indicate that TGF-
induced an inhibition of interferon- (IFN- ) production without
affecting the IL-12R 1 and IL-12R 2 subunits mRNA expression by
activated T cells. We further show that TGF- has a significant inhibitory effect on the early signal transduction events following interaction of IL-12 with its receptor on activated T cells, resulting in the inhibition of both JAK2 and Tyk2 phosphorylation. In addition, TGF- was found to significantly inhibit IL-12-induced
phosphorylation of the STAT4 transcription factor. Electrophoretic
mobility shift assay indicated that TGF- induced a decrease in
IL-12-induced STAT4 DNA binding activity in T lymphocytes. This study
suggests that TGF- influences IL-12 responsiveness at least in part
by inhibiting early signaling events essential to gene induction in
IL-12-activated T cells.
