Project description:Immune-response gene 1 (IRG1) transcription is rapidly induced by pathogen infections and inflammatory conditions primarily in cells of myeloid lineage. Deletion of Irg1 in mice causes severe defects in response to bacterial and viral infection and rapid death. IRG1 encodes a mitochondrial metabolic enzyme, aconitate decarboxylase 1 (ACOD1), that catalyzes the decarboxylation of cis-aconitate, a tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediate, to produce the anti-inflammatory metabolite itaconic acid (ITA). ITA can inhibit SDH5, resulting in elevated levels of succinate and metabolic reprogramming, or alkylate protein cysteine residues to induce electrophilic stress response mediated by NRF2 and IκBζ. Here we show that ITA is an antagonist of α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) and a potent inhibitor of α-KG/Fe2+-dependent TET family of DNA dioxygenases. In vitro, ITA binds to TET2 and inhibits the catalytic activity of TET2 and, reciprocally, α-KG blocks ITA binding to and inhibition of TET2. In vivo, lipopolysaccharides (LPS) treatment, which induces IRG1 expression and causes the intracellular accumulation of ITA, inhibits TET activity in Irg1-WT, but not Irg1-KO macrophages. Moreover, TET2 is a major target of ITA function in suppressing LPS-induced genes. LPS stimulates p65 NF-κB/RelA to bind with and recruit TET2 to hydroxymethylate and activate the Nfkbiz gene, which encodes IκBζ. Our results thus identify a physiological metabolite inhibitor of TET enzymes and reveal a novel mechanism for the anti-inflammatory function of ITA through dampening TET2-mediated NF-κB signaling.

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.

Project description:BMDMs of indicated phenotypes were stimulated with LPS for 24h and analyzed or restimulated with LPS for additional 3h and analyzed. In some experiments 1mM itaconate was added at 4h of LPS first stimulation.

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-1β-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.

Project description:Trimethyltin (TMT) and triethyltin (TET) are two tri-organotin compounds, a group of substances reported to affect mitochondria function. These compounds were also found to activate the NLRP3 inflammasome, an inflammatory cascade that occurs in myeloid cells when primed with a Toll-like receptor ligand (i.e. LPS) followed by activation by an exogenous or endogenous danger signal. The inflammasome is a very tightly regulated mechanism, with several miRNAs playing an important role. To determine differential miRNA changes between TMT and TET induced inflammasome activation, miRNA expression profiles were evaluated in LPS-primed murine bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDMs) exposed to TMT or TET as compared to saline. mRNA expression arrays were also performed and analyzed to identify miRNA target genes in order to elucidate the key mechanism(s) by which TMT and TET activate the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway. These studies will help us understand the inflammasome regulation in macrophages by organotin.
