P204 Is Required for Canonical Lipopolysaccharide-induced TLR4 Signaling in Mice.


ABSTRACT: p204, a murine member of an interferon-inducible p200 family, was reported to recognize intracellular viral and bacterial DNAs, however, its role in the innate immunity in vivo remains unknown due to the lack of p204-deficient animal models. In this study we first generated the p204-/- mice. Unexpectedly, p204 deficiency led to significant defect in extracellular LPS signaling in macrophages, as demonstrated by dramatic reductions of LPS-mediated IFN-? and pro-inflammatory cytokines. The serum levels of IFN-? and pro-inflammatory cytokines were also significantly reduced in p204-/- mice following LPS challenge. In addition, p204-/- mice were resistant to LPS-induced shock. LPS-activated NF-?B and IRF-3 pathways were all defective in p204-deficient macrophages. p204 binds to TLR4 through its Pyrin domain, and it is required for the dimerization of TLR4 following LPS-challenge. Collectively, p204 is a critical component of canonical LPS-TLR4 signaling pathway, and these studies also suggest that p204 could be a potential target to prevent and treat inflammatory and infectious diseases.
