We report the novel finding that versican expression is regulated by the interferon-stimulated gene factor 3 (ISGF3) arm of canonical type I Ifn signaling in LPS-stimulated macrophages. This pathway is distinct from mechanisms that control versican expression in other cell types. This suggests that macrophage-derived versican may play a role in limiting a potentially excessive inflammatory response. The detailed understanding of how versican expression is regulated in different cells could lead to unique approaches for enhancing its anti-inflammatory properties.
