## Abstract Type I collagen is composed of two α1(I) chains and one α2(I) chain that together form a unique triple helical structure. The genes for these chains are located on different chromosomes but their expression is tightly regulated. In order to investigate the mechanism of regulation of coo
Interferon-␥ (IFN-␥), a multifunctional cytokine produced by activated Th1 lymphocytes, exerts potent effects on the extracellular matrix by regulating fibroblast function. In this study, we examined the modulation of ␣1(I) procollagen gene (COL1A1) expression by recombinant IFN-␥. The results showe
