Developmental LTbR synergistically activates TLR4 mediated inflammatory RelA/NF-kB response

ABSTRACT: Developmental signals are known to modulate inflammation. How ever, the mechanistic insight that links developmental and inflammatory signaling remains elusive. In the current study, we identifya critical role of NF-kB system in mediating stimulus specific crosstalk that allows developmental LTbR signals to sustain inflammatory TLR4 induced RelA/NF-kB response and gene expression. LTbR activated non-canonical signaling targets canonical TLR4 induced, nfkb2 encoded p100 not only to deplete inhibitory IkBd/(p100)2, but also to supplement RelA:p52/NF-kB dimers. Robust crosstalk in the gut epithelial cells are important, as crosstalk-defective nfkb2-/- mice succumbed to gut infection by Citrobacter rodentium due to hypo-inflammatory responses. Finally, we present evidence for a crosstalk motif that integrates tissue microenvironment derived developmental cues to ameliorate the pathogen response.

Project description:Mouse aorta smooth muscle cells (SMCs) express TNF receptor superfamily member 1A (TNFR1) and lymphotoxin Ã receptor (LTÃR). Circumstantial evidence has linked the SMC LTÃR to tertiary lymphoid organogenesis in diseased aortae of hyperlipidemic mice. Here, we explored potential roles of TNFR1 and LTÃR activation in cultured SMCs. TNFR1 signaling by TNF activated the classical RelA NF-ÎºB pathway, whereas LTÃR signaling by agonistic anti LTÃR antibody activated both the classical RelA and alternative RelB NF-ÎºB pathways. Addition of both agonists synergized to enhance p100 inhibitor processing to the p52 subunit of NF-ÎºB and promoted its nuclear translocation suggesting RelA-RelB cross-talk in transcription regulation. Correspondingly, microarrays showed that simultaneous TNFR1 and LTÃR activation when compared to activation of single receptors was followed by markedly elevated levels of mRNAs encoding leukocyte homeostatic chemokines CCL2, CCL5, CXCL1, and CX3CL1. Furthermore, SMCs acquired prototypical features of mesenchymal cells known as lymphoid tissue organizers (LTOs), which control tertiary lymphoid organogenesis in autoimmune diseases, through hyperinduction of CCL7, CCL9, CXCL13, CCL19, CXCL16, VCAM-1, and ICAM-1. Experiments with ltbr-/- SMCs suggested that the LTÃR-RelB activation component of NF-ÎºB signaling was obligatory to generate the LTO phenotype. TNFR1-LTÃR crosstalk also resulted in augmented synthesis and prolonged secretion of lymphorganogenic chemokine proteins into the culture medium. Thus, combined TNFR1-LTÃR signaling triggers SMC transdifferentiation into a phenotype that strikingly resembles LTOs. LTO-like SMCs may adopt a thus far unrecognized role in diseased arteries, i.e. to coordinate tertiary lymphoid organogenesis in atherosclerosis, aortic aneurysm, and transplant vasculopathy. Experiment Overall Design: Smooth muscle cells in tissue culture were stimulated with agonists and subsequently microarray, RT-PCR, and protein assays / analyses were performed
