“…The majority of proteins within this network of functional, physical and genetic interactions serve as inflammatory cytokines (including IL-1α and IL-6), signal transducers or transcription factors. The data are also consistent with a model suggesting that SIAH1/SIAH2 do not provide a contribution for upstream signaling cascades or basal gene expression and rather affect IL-1α-regulated gene expression, which is also under the control of several other regulatory circuitries [15,17,18,19]. Consistently, SIAH1 has been frequently identified as an interactor of transcription factors (RUNX1, RARα, KLF10 and STAT3), factors important for posttranscriptional gene regulation and also transcriptional co-regulators such as HIPK2 and the acetyl transferase CBP/p300 [4,24,25,26,27].…”
