Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a member of the TNF family and potent inducer of apoptosis. TRAIL has been shown to effectively limit tumor growth in vivo without detectable cytotoxic side effects. Interferon (IFN)-γ often modulates the anti-cancer activities of TNF family members including TRAIL. We previously reported that IFN-γ enhanced TRAIL-induced Apoptosis in HeLa cells without the unknown mechanism. In this study, we investigated whether IRF-1 involves in IFN-γ-enhanced TRAIL-induced apoptosis. We exposed HeLa cells to IFN-γ for 12 hours and then treated with recombinant TRAIL protein.
