Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha- and interleukin-1-induced cellular responses: coupling proteomic and genomic information.

ABSTRACT: The pro-inflammatory cytokines, Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNFalpha) and Interleukin-1 (IL-1) mediate the innate immune response. Dysregulation of the innate immune response contributes to the pathogenesis of cancer, arthritis, and congestive heart failure. TNFalpha- and IL-1-induced changes in gene expression are mediated by similar transcription factors; however, TNFalpha and IL-1 receptor knock-out mice differ in their sensitivities to a known initiator (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) of the innate immune response. The contrasting responses to LPS indicate that TNFalpha and IL-1 regulate different processes. A large-scale proteomic analysis of TNFalpha- and IL-1-induced responses was undertaken to identify processes uniquely regulated by TNFalpha and IL-1. When combined with genomic studies, our results indicate that TNFalpha, but not IL-1, mediates cell cycle arrest.

Project description:Obesity is often associated with insulin resistance, low-grade systemic inflammation, and reduced plasma adiponectin. Inflammation is also increased in adipose tissue, but it is not clear whether the reductions of adiponectin levels are related to dysregulation of insulin activity and/or increased proinflammatory mediators. In this study, we investigated the interactions of insulin, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) in the regulation of adiponectin production using in vivo and in vitro approaches. Plasma adiponectin and parameters of insulin resistance and inflammation were assessed in a cohort of lean and obese insulin-resistant subjects. In addition, the effect of insulin was examined in vivo using the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp, and in adipose tissue (AT) cultures. Compared with lean subjects, the levels of total adiponectin, and especially the high-molecular-weight (HMW) isomer, were abnormally low in obese insulin-resistant subjects. The hyperinsulinemic clamp data confirmed the insulin-resistant state in the obese patients and showed that insulin infusion significantly increased the plasma adiponectin in lean but not obese subjects (P < 0.01). Similarly, insulin increased total adiponectin release from AT explants of lean and not obese subjects. Moreover, expression and secretion of TNF-α and IL-6 increased significantly in AT of obese subjects and were negatively associated with expression and secretion of adiponectin. In 3T3-L1 and human adipocyte cultures, insulin strongly enhanced adiponectin expression (2-fold) and secretion (3-fold). TNF-α, and not IL-6, strongly opposed the stimulatory effects of insulin. Intriguingly, the inhibitory effect of TNF-α was especially directed toward the HMW isomer of adiponectin. In conclusion, these studies show that insulin upregulates adiponectin expression and release, and that TNF-α opposes the stimulatory effects of insulin. A combination of insulin resistance and increased TNF-α production could explain the decline of adiponectin levels and alterations of isomer composition in plasma of obese insulin-resistant subjects.

Project description:Interferon (IFN) family cytokines stimulate genes (interferon-stimulated genes [ISGs]) that are integral to antiviral host defense. Type I IFNs act systemically, whereas type III IFNs act preferentially at epithelial barriers. Among barrier cells, intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) are particularly dependent on type III IFN for the control and clearance of virus infection, but the physiological basis of this selective IFN response is not well understood. Here, we confirm that type III IFN treatment elicits robust and uniform ISG expression in neonatal mouse IECs and inhibits the replication of IEC-tropic rotavirus. In contrast, type I IFN elicits a marginal ISG response in neonatal mouse IECs and does not inhibit rotavirus replication. In vitro treatment of IEC organoids with type III IFN results in ISG expression that mirrors the in vivo type III IFN response. However, IEC organoids have increased expression of the type I IFN receptor relative to neonate IECs, and the response of IEC organoids to type I IFN is strikingly increased in magnitude and scope relative to type III IFN. The expanded type I IFN-specific response includes proapoptotic genes and potentiates toxicity triggered by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). The ISGs stimulated in common by type I and III IFNs have strong interferon-stimulated response element (ISRE) promoter motifs, whereas the expanded set of type I IFN-specific ISGs, including proapoptotic genes, have weak ISRE motifs. Thus, the preferential responsiveness of IECs to type III IFN in vivo enables selective ISG expression during infection that confers antiviral protection but minimizes disruption of intestinal homeostasis.IMPORTANCE Enteric viral infections are a major cause of gastroenteritis worldwide and have the potential to trigger or exacerbate intestinal inflammatory diseases. Prior studies have identified specialized innate immune responses that are active in the intestinal epithelium following viral infection, but our understanding of the benefits of such an epithelium-specific response is incomplete. Here, we show that the intestinal epithelial antiviral response is programmed to enable protection while minimizing epithelial cytotoxicity that can often accompany an inflammatory response. Our findings offer new insight into the benefits of a tailored innate immune response at the intestinal barrier and suggest how dysregulation of this response could promote inflammatory disease.
