| Abstract | The crucial role of T helper (Th) cells and chronic inflammation in atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease is no longer controversial. Evidence has revealed that Th cell type 1 (Th1) is closely associated with the pathogenesis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). But the mechanisms involved in the generation of Th1 cells have not been fully elucidated. IFN regulatory factor (IRF)-1 is a pleiotropic transcription factor involved in innate immunity and chronic inflammation disease. The study was undertaken to investigate the potential effect of IRF-1 on the Th1 cell function in patients with ACS in vitro.Patients with clinical presentation of chest pain, stable angina, unstable angina, and acute myocardial infarction were enrolled in this study. Circulating CD4+ T cells were enriched and analyzed for mRNA and protein expression of IRF-1. Silencing IRF-1 gene with small interfering RNA in CD4+ T cells from patients with ACS was performed to explore the possible mechanisms involved in ACS.The results demonstrated that the expression of IRF-1 in CD4+ T cells was significantly increased in patients with ACS and positively correlated with plasma Th1 cytokine profile. Inhibition of IRF-1 in CD4+ T cells from patients with ACS prevented the induction of the frequencies and cytokines expression of Th1 cells. In addition, this study also revealed that IRF-1 modulate Th1 differentiation through establishing IL-12 responsiveness by acting on IL-12 receptor β1.The present data demonstrate that inhibition of IRF-1 obviously decrease the function of Th1 cells and may be a novel participator in the progress of ACS. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
