The Th1 cytokine interferon-?? (IFN-??) inhibits collagen gene transcription, and blocks stimulation induced by TGF-?? (Varga et al., 1990). Negative regulation of collagen gene by IFN-?? plays an important homeostatic role in preventing excessive scar formation. Transcription factors implicated in mediating IFN-??-induced inhibition of collagen gene expression include STAT1?? (Ghosh et al., 2001), class II transactivator (CIITA) (Zhu and Ting, 2001), the RFX5 complex (Sengupta et al., 2002), YB-1 (Higashi et al., 2003), and C/EBP-?? (Ghosh et al., 2006). In our studies focusing on the role of p300 in IFN-?? modulation of collagen synthesis, we found that IFN-?? induced a direct interaction between activated STAT1?? and p300 in normal skin fibroblasts (Ghosh et al., 2001). Furthermore, ectopic expression of p300 overcame the inhibition by IFN-?? and rescued stimulation by TGF-??, suggesting that in response to IFN-??, activated STAT1?? and/or downstream factor(s) sequestered p300, preventing its recruitment to the transcriptional machinery and thereby inhibiting collagen gene transcription (Ghosh et al., 2001). Similarly, IFN-?? suppression of COL1A2 promoter activation by YB-1 also appears to involve p300 sequestration (Higashi et al., 2003).

STAT1 is involeved in immunosupresive activity of M2 macrophages and MDSC, probably downstream of IFNG.
activation of MSCs is initiated in response to IFN-gamma, presumably produced in situ by antitumor T cells in the tumor microenvironment.

INFG pathway inhibits activation (phosphorylation) of ERK, JNK, p38 kinases and PI3K pathway induced by TLR. Inhibition of AKT pathway by IFNG resulted in activation of GSK3. GSK3 inhibits downstream AP-1 and CREB1 signaling and downregulates IL10 expression induced by TLR.IFNG inhibits CREB activation via p38 induced by TLR signaling
