Sustained IFN-λ induced STAT activation requires de novo protein synthesis (A) HaCaT cells were stimulated with IFN-α (5 ng/mL) or IFN-λ (100 ng/mL) for 30 min followed by pulse chase with staurosporine (STS) for the indicated times. Cell extracts were prepared and immunoblot analysis was performed with antibodies against pY-STAT1, pY-STAT2, total STAT1, total STAT2. β-actin served as an internal control for equal loading (B) Same as in (A) except, cells were pretreated with cycloheximide (5μg/mL) followed with IFN-α or IFN-λ treatment.
