Cytosolic HMGB1 Mediates LPS-Induced Autophagy in Microglia by Interacting with NOD2 and Suppresses Its Proinflammatory Function.

ABSTRACT: The high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), a well-known danger-associated molecule pattern (DAMP) molecule, is a non-histone chromosomal protein localized in the nucleus under normal physiological conditions. HMGB1 exhibits diverse functions depending on its subcellular location. In the present study, we investigated the role of HMGB1-induced autophagy in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated BV2 microglial cell line in mediating the transition between the inflammatory and autophagic function of the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing 2 (NOD2), a cytoplasmic pattern-recognition receptor. The induction of the microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3), an autophagy biomarker, was detected slowly in BV2 cells after the LPS treatment, and peak induction was detected at 1
