Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase is essential for interleukin-1beta-mediated dedifferentiation of articular chondrocytes via SIRT1 and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) complex signaling.

ABSTRACT: Although much is known about interleukin (IL)-1? and its role as a key mediator of cartilage destruction in osteoarthritis, only limited information is available on IL-1? signaling in chondrocyte dedifferentiation. Here, we have characterized the molecular mechanisms leading to the dedifferentiation of primary cultured articular chondrocytes by IL-1? treatment. IL-1? or lipopolysaccharide, but not phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, retinoic acid, or epidermal growth factor, induced nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) expression, showing the association of inflammatory cytokines with NAMPT regulation. SIRT1, in turn, was activated NAMPT-dependently, without any alteration in the expression level. Activation or inhibition of SIRT1 oppositevely regulates IL-1?-mediated chondrocyte dedifferentiation, suggesting this protein as a key regulator of chondrocytes phenotype. SIRT1 activation promotes induction of ERK and p38 kinase activities, but not JNK, in response to IL-1?. Subsequently, ERK and p38 kinase activated by SIRT1 also induce SIRT1 activation, forming a positive feedback loop to sustain downstream signaling of these kinases. Moreover, we found that the SIRT1-ERK complex, but not SIRT1-p38, is engaged in IL-1?-induced chondrocyte dedifferentiation via a Sox-9-mediated mechanism. JNK is activated by IL-1? and modulates dedifferentiation of chondrocytes, but this pathway is independent on NAMPT-SIRT1 signaling. Based on these findings, we propose that IL-1? induces dedifferentiation of articular chondrocytes by up-regulation of SIRT1 activity enhanced by both NAMPT and ERK signaling.

Although much is known about interleukin (IL)-1β and its role as a key mediator of cartilage destruction in osteoarthritis, only limited information is available on IL-1β signaling in chondrocyte dedifferentiation. Here, we have characterized the molecular mechanisms leading to the dedifferentiation of primary cultured articular chondrocytes by IL-1β treatment.

Project description:ObjectivesTo investigate the presence and functionality of oestrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) in interleukin (IL)1beta-treated rabbit articular chondrocytes in culture, and to determine the mechanisms of 17beta oestradiol (E2) effects on IL1beta-induced inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression.MethodsThe presence and functionality of ERalpha were investigated by immunocytochemistry and transient expression of an E2-responsive reporter construct. iNOS expression and production were determined by transient expression of a chimeric iNOS promoter-luciferase construct and protein immunoblotting. Nitric oxide (NO) production was determined by the Griess reaction. DNA-binding activities of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) and activated protein 1 were determined by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA)-ELISA assays. Nuclear translocation of p65 was studied by immunocytochemistry.ResultsERalpha was identified in the nucleus of chondrocytes. ERalpha efficiently transactivated a transiently expressed E2-responsive construct. On IL1beta treatment, ERalpha partially diffused from its nuclear localisation into the cytoplasm and its transactivation ability was impaired. Nevertheless, E2, tamoxifen and raloxifene efficiently inhibited IL1beta-induced NO production (-34%, -31% and -36%, respectively). E2 decreased IL1beta-induced iNOS protein expression (-40%). Transient expression of an iNOS promoter construct strongly suggested that iNOS expression was inhibited at the transcriptional level, and EMSA-ELISA assays showed that E2 reduced (-60%) the IL1beta-induced p65 DNA-binding capacity. Finally, the p65 nuclear translocation induced by IL1beta was also strongly decreased by E2.ConclusionsOur data support a reciprocal antagonism between oestrogens and IL1beta, ultimately resulting in the decrease of cytokine-dependent NO production through transcriptional inhibition of iNOS expression. This effect was associated with selective inhibition of p65 DNA binding and nuclear translocation.

Project description:Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) is a nuclear receptor involved in the regulation of many cellular processes. We and others have previously shown that PPARgamma activators display anti-inflammatory and chondroprotective properties in vitro and improve the clinical course and histopathological features in an experimental animal model of osteoarthritis (OA). However, the expression and regulation of PPARgamma expression in cartilage are poorly defined. This study was undertaken to investigate the quantitative expression and distribution of PPARgamma in normal and OA cartilage and to evaluate the effect of IL-1beta, a prominent cytokine in OA, on PPARgamma expression in cultured chondrocytes. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the levels of PPARgamma protein expression were significantly lower in OA cartilage than in normal cartilage. Using real-time RT-PCR, we demonstrated that PPARgamma1 mRNA levels were about 10-fold higher than PPARgamma2 mRNA levels, and that only PPARgamma1 was differentially expressed: its levels in OA cartilage was 2.4-fold lower than in normal cartilage (p < 0.001). IL-1 treatment of OA chondrocytes downregulated PPARgamma1 expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner. This effect probably occurred at the transcriptional level, because IL-1 decreases both PPARgamma1 mRNA expression and PPARgamma1 promoter activity. TNF-alpha, IL-17, and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), which are involved in the pathogenesis of OA, also downregulated PPARgamma1 expression. Specific inhibitors of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) p38 (SB203580) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (SP600125), but not of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (PD98059), prevented IL-1-induced downregulation of PPARgamma1 expression. Similarly, inhibitors of NF-kappaB signaling (pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate, MG-132, and SN-50) abolished the suppressive effect of IL-1. Thus, our study demonstrated that PPARgamma1 is downregulated in OA cartilage. The pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1 may be responsible for this downregulation via a mechanism involving activation of the MAPKs (p38 and JNK) and NF-kappaB signaling pathways. The IL-1-induced downregulation of PPARgamma expression might be a new and additional important process by which IL-1 promotes articular inflammation and cartilage degradation.
