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

## Abstract The expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor‐κB ligand (RANKL) is regulated by bone‐seeking hormones such as PTH and 1α,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D~3~ (1,25(OH)~2~D~3~). Runx2, a master gene for osteoblastic differentiation, also modulates osteoclastogenesis by regulating the RANKL
HLA-A3 and HLA-B7 class-I genes are differentially regulated in human T lymphoma Jurkat cells, at the trancriptional level, the expression of the HLA-B7 gene being selectively increased following a, p or y interferon (IFN) treatment.

## Abstract Treatment with 10^−8^ m 1,25‐dihydroxyvitamin D~3~ for 24 h causes transcriptional activation of the human insulin receptor gene in U‐937 human promonocytic cells. The activation seems to potentiate the response to insulin in terms of glucose oxidation. Wortmannin, a phosphatidylinosito
