Electrophilic stress induced by dimethyl itaconate regulates IkB-zeta-mediated inflammatory responses

ABSTRACT: Interplay between metabolic state of the cell and its ability to undergo immunological activation has been recently recognized as a treasure chest of novel fundamental regulatory principles. Itaconate, and its membrane permeable derivative dimethyl itaconate (DI) were recently shown to selectively inhibit subset of cytokines during macrophage activation (e.g. Il1b, il6, Il12b but not TNF), yet the precise mechanism of this effect remained unclear. We find that selectivity of DI action stems from the inhibitory effects of electrophilic stress exerted by DI on IkB-zeta protein translation, leading to selective control of the secondary wave of Nfkb-signaling. Mechanistically, DI leads to glutathione depletion and subsequent activation of both Nrf2-dependent and Nrf2-independent stress responses. We find that IkB-zeta regulation is carried out in Nrf2-independent manner, and identify Atf3 as a key mediator of DI effects on IkB-zeta/IL6. This inhibitory effect is conserved across species and cell types, as evident from inhibition of IkB-zeta production in activating human monocytes and IL-17A stimulated keratinocytes of both human and mice. Finally, DI administration in vivo ameliorated IL17/IkB-zeta-driven skin pathology in the mouse model of psoriasis, highlighting therapeutic potential of this regulatory pathway.

Electrophilic stress induced by itaconate and its derivatives regulates ATF3-IKBZ inflammatory axis independently of Nrf2 induction

Project description:Metabolic regulation recently emerged as a novel powerful principle guiding immune responses. The natural metabolite itaconate and its membrane permeable derivative dimethyl itaconate (DI) were recently shown to selectively inhibit a subset of cytokines during macrophage activation, yet the precise mechanism of this effect remained unclear. We show here that itaconate/DI react with glutathione and subsequently induce both Nrf2-dependent and Nrf2-independent stress responses. We find that the striking selectivity of DI action stems from the inhibitory effects of electrophilic stress on IKBZ protein translation, leading to the inhibition of only the secondary wave of NF-KB signaling. We find that IKBZ regulation occurs in an Nrf2-independent manner, and identify ATF3 as a key mediator of the immunosuppression.

Dimethyl itaconate inhibits secondary wave of NF-κB signaling in macrophage activation

Project description:Natural metabolite itaconate and its membrane permeable derivative dimethyl itaconate (DI) selectively inhibit a subset of cytokines during macrophage activation (e.g. IL-1β, IL-6, IL-12 but not TNF-α). Selectivity of DI action stems from the inhibitory effects of secondary, but not primary, wave of NF-κB signaling.

Itaconate links inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase with macrophage metabolic remodeling and regulation of inflammation

Project description:Remodeling of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle is a metabolic adaptation mechanism accompanying inflammatory macrophage activation. During this process, endogenous metabolites can adopt regulatory roles that govern specific aspects of inflammatory response, as recently shown for succinate, which regulates the downstream pro-inflammatory IL-1Î²-HIF1a axis. Itaconate is one of the most highly induced metabolites in activated macrophages, yet its functional significance remains unknown. Here, we show that itaconate modulates macrophage metabolism and effector functions via its effect on succinate dehydrogenase, by inhibiting conversion of succinate to fumarate. Through this action, itaconate exerts anti-inflammatory effects when administered in vitro and in vivo during macrophage activation and ischemia-reperfusion injury. Using newly generated Irg1-/- mice, which lack the ability to produce itaconate, we show that endogenous itaconate regulates succinate levels and function, changes in mitochondrial respiration, and inflammatory cytokine production during macrophage activation. These studies highlight itaconate as a major physiological regulator of the global metabolic rewiring and effector functions of inflammatory macrophages. Experiment 1: mature WT BMDM were treated for 12h with 0.25 mM dimethyl itaconate (DI) or vehicle (Unst) and then stimulated with LPS (E. coli 0111:B4; 100 ng/ml, 4h) (DI+LPS; LPS); Experiment 2: mature Irg1-/- BMDM were stimulated with LPS (E. coli 0111:B4; 100 ng/ml) and murine recombinant IFNg (50 ng/ml) for 24h.

Dimethyl Itaconate selectively targets chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells

Project description:Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) is strictly dependent on the complex interplay between the intrinsic features of the leukemic cells and microenvironmental stimulations including inflammatory stimuli by Toll Like Receptors (TLR) which protect CLL cells from drug induced apoptosis by upregulating NFKBIZ, an atypical co-transcription factor. To face the challenge of targeting transcription factors, we exploited the capacity of Dimethyl Itaconate (DI), an electrophilic synthetic derivative of Itaconate, to block NFKBIZ acting as anti-inflammatory agent. Primary CLL cells isolated from the peripheral blood of patients, leukemic splenocytes isolated from TCL1 transgenic mice, and circulating leukocytes isolated from healthy donors were treated in vitro with increasing concentrations of DI either alone or in combination with the TLR ligands. DI abrogated the induction of NFKBIZ as well as its target genes IL6 and IL10. Remarkably, DI reduced metabolic activation and cell viability of leukemic cells even if added after a robust TLR pre-stimulation; in contrast, no toxic effect was evident in normal leukocytes including T- and B-lymphocytes. DI induced apoptosis of malignant cells by reducing BCL-XL and MCL1 levels while inducing PARP cleavage. RNA sequencing highlighted that DI abrogated the TLR9-mediated upregulation of transcripts related to the metabolism of rRNAs, interferon and cytokine signaling. Notably, in addition to the expected electrophilic stress signature observed after DI treatment, novel pathways emerged including the downregulation of distinct MHC class II complex genes. In conclusion, DI not only abrogated the pro-inflammatory effects of TLR stimulation but also targeted a specific vulnerability in CLL cells.

Nrf2 is a central regulator of the metabolic landscape in macrophages and finetunes their inflammatory response

Project description:To overcome oxidative, inflammatory, and metabolic stress, cells have evolved networks of cytoprotective proteins controlled by transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid 2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and its main negative regulator the Kelch-like ECH associated protein 1 (Keap1). Here, we used high-resolution mass-spectrometry to characterize the proteomes of macrophages with altered Nrf2 status. Our analysis revealed significant differences among the genotypes in cellular metabolism and redox homeostasis, which we validated with Seahorse flux and metabolomics, as well as in anti-viral immune pathways, translational regulation and mitosis. Nrf2 disruption significantly affected the proteome following lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, with alterations in redox, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, and innate immunity predominantly. Of note, LPS stimulation was found to promote mitochondrial fusion in a process that was dependent on Nrf2. The Keap1 inhibitor, 4-octyl itaconate (4-OI), a derivative of the mitochondrial immunometabolite itaconate, remodeled the inflammatory macrophage proteome, increasing redox and suppressing anti-viral immune effectors in a Nrf2-dependent manner. These data suggest that Nrf2 activation facilitates metabolic reprogramming, mitochondrial adaptation, and finetunes the innate immune response in macrophages.

Comparative evaluation of metabolic, electrophilic, and immunologic effects of itaconate and its ester derivatives on macrophage activation

Project description:Itaconate is a metabolite naturally produced in large amounts in macrophages after exposure to immune stimulation. Following the discovery of itaconate’s immunoregulatory properties, several ester derivatives of this dicarboxylic acid were designed to further examine its role. We evaluated the metabolic, electrophilic, and immunologic profiles of macrophages treated with unmodified itaconate and a panel of itaconate derivatives. We found that only unmodified itaconate strongly enhances LPS-induced IFNb secretion after 12h pre-treatment. Thus, we compared the transcriptional profile of wild type and Irg1-/- cells, which are unable to produce itaconate, after 24h LPS stimulation. We find that cells lacking itaconate have impaired downstream type I interferon signaling, and that addition of itaconate Irg1-/- BMDMs restores this signaling back to levels comparable to wild type. This data highlights the role of itaconate as an immunoregulatory metabolite, and highlights the importance of using unmodified itaconate or genetic knockout models in future mechanistic studies.

Dimethyl Itaconate alleviates the pyroptosis of macrophages through oxidative stress

Project description:Macrophages are involved in the pathophysiology of many diseases as critical cells of the innate immune system. Pyroptosis is a form of macrophage death that induces cytokinesis of phagocytic substances in the macrophages, thereby defending against infection. Dimethyl itaconate (DI) is an analog of itaconic acid with anti-inflammatory effects. However, the effect of dimethyl itaconate on macrophage pyroptosis has not been elucidated clearly. Thus, the present study aimed to analyze the effect of DI treatment on a macrophage pyroptosis model (Lipopolysaccharide, LPS+Adenosine Triphosphate, ATP). The results showed that 0.25 mM DI ameliorated macrophage pyroptosis and downregulated interleukin (IL)-1β expression. Then, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to confirm the result of RNA-sequencing of the upregulated oxidative stress-related genes (Gclc and Gss) and downregulated inflammation-related genes (IL-12β and IL-1β). In addition, Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis showed that differential genes were associated with transcript levels and DNA replication. Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) enrichment showed that signaling pathways, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF), Jak, Toll-like receptor and IL-17, were altered after DI treatment. N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) reversed the DI effect on the LPS+ATP-induced macrophage pyroptosis and upregulated the IL-1β expression. Oxidative stress-related protein Nrf2 is involved in the DI regulation of macrophage pyroptosis. Taken together, these findings suggested that DI alleviates the pyroptosis of macrophages through oxidative stress.
