Endotoxin tolerance reprograms Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4-mediated macrophage responses by attenuating induction of proinflammatory cytokines while retaining expression of anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial mediators. We previously demonstrated deficient TLR4-induced activation of IL-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK) 4, IRAK1, and TANK-binding kinase (TBK) 1 as critical hallmarks of endotoxin tolerance, but mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we examined the role of the E3 ubiquitin ligase Pellino-1 in endotoxin tolerance and TLR signaling. LPS stimulation increased Pellino-1 mRNA and protein expression in macrophages from mice injected with saline and in medium-pretreated human monocytes, THP-1, and MonoMac-6 cells, whereas endotoxin tolerization abrogated LPS inducibility of Pellino-1. Overexpression of Pellino-1 in 293/TLR2 and 293/TLR4/MD2 cells enhanced TLR2- and TLR4-induced nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and expression of IL-8 mRNA, whereas Pellino-1 knockdown reduced these responses. Pellino-1 ablation in THP-1 cells impaired induction of myeloid differentiation primary response protein (MyD88), and Toll-IL-1R domain-containing adapter inducing IFN-β (TRIF)-dependent cytokine genes in response to TLR4 and TLR2 agonists and heat-killed Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, whereas only weakly affecting phagocytosis of heat-killed bacteria. Co-expressed Pellino-1 potentiated NF-κB activation driven by transfected MyD88, TRIF, IRAK1, TBK1, TGF-β-activated kinase (TAK) 1, and TNFR-associated factor 6, whereas not affecting p65-induced responses. Mechanistically, Pellino-1 increased LPS-driven K63-linked polyubiquitination of IRAK1, TBK1, TAK1, and phosphorylation of TBK1 and IFN regulatory factor 3. These results reveal a novel mechanism by which endotoxin tolerance re-programs TLR4 signaling via suppression of Pellino-1, a positive regulator of MyD88- and TRIF-dependent signaling that promotes K63-linked polyubiquitination of IRAK1, TBK1, and TAK1.
内毒素耐受通过减弱促炎细胞因子的诱导同时保留抗炎和抗菌介质的表达来重新编程Toll样受体(TLR)4介导的巨噬细胞反应。我们之前证明了TLR4诱导的白细胞介素-1受体相关激酶(IRAK)4、IRAK1和TANK结合激酶(TBK)1激活缺陷是内毒素耐受的关键标志,但机制仍不清楚。在本研究中,我们研究了E3泛素连接酶Pellino-1在内毒素耐受和TLR信号传导中的作用。脂多糖(LPS)刺激增加了注射生理盐水的小鼠巨噬细胞以及经培养基预处理的人单核细胞、THP-1和MonoMac-6细胞中Pellino-1的mRNA和蛋白质表达,而内毒素耐受消除了LPS对Pellino-1的诱导能力。在293/TLR2和293/TLR4/MD2细胞中过表达Pellino-1增强了TLR2和TLR4诱导的核因子κB(NF-κB)以及白细胞介素-8 mRNA的表达,而敲低Pellino-1则降低了这些反应。在THP-1细胞中敲除Pellino-1会损害对TLR4和TLR2激动剂以及热灭活的大肠杆菌和金黄色葡萄球菌的反应中髓样分化初级反应蛋白(MyD88)和含Toll-IL-1R结构域的衔接蛋白诱导干扰素-β(TRIF)依赖性细胞因子基因的诱导,而对热灭活细菌的吞噬作用影响较弱。共表达的Pellino-1增强了由转染的MyD88、TRIF、IRAK1、TBK1、转化生长因子-β激活激酶(TAK)1和肿瘤坏死因子受体相关因子6驱动的NF-κB激活,而不影响p65诱导的反应。从机制上讲,Pellino-1增加了LPS驱动的IRAK1、TBK1、TAK1的K63连接的多聚泛素化以及TBK1和干扰素调节因子3的磷酸化。这些结果揭示了一种新机制,即内毒素耐受通过抑制Pellino-1来重新编程TLR4信号传导,Pellino-1是MyD88和TRIF依赖性信号传导的正调节因子,可促进IRAK1、TBK1和TAK1的K63连接的多聚泛素化。
