Gene expression profiles of RAW264.7 macrophages stimulated with preparations of LPS differing in isolation and purity.
Lipopolysaccharide is a major component of the cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria and a potent stimulator of innate immune response via TLR4. Studies on the LPS action both in vivo and in vitro have used different preparations of LPS, including ultra-pure LPS (LIST) and a less pure but less expensive form (Sigma) isolated from Escherichia coli serotype O111:B4. The difference between the effects of these compounds has not been well studied although this information is important in understanding TLR stimulation. In this study, we compared response of RAW264.7 macrophage cells treated LIST or Sigma LPS for 6 h and 24 h. Gene expression data were analyzed to identify specific genes and pathways that are in common and unique to the two LPS preparations. Seven hundred fifty-five genes were differentially expressed at 6 h in response to Sigma LPS and 973 were differentially expressed following LIST LPS treatment, with 503 in common. At 24 h, Sigma LPS induced or repressed 901 genes while 1646 genes were differentially regulated by LIST LPS treatment; 701 genes were shared by two forms of LPS. Although considerably more genes were differentially expressed in response to LIST LPS, similar molecular pathways and transcriptional networks were activated by the two LPS preparations. We also treated bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) from three strains of mice with different concentrations of LIST and Sigma LPS and showed that BMMs produced more IL-6 and TNF-α in response to LIST LPS at low LPS concentrations but, at higher LPS concentrations, more cytokines were produced in response to stimulation by Sigma LPS. Together, these findings suggest that, despite activation of similar molecular pathways by LIST and Sigma LPS preparations, residual protein impurities in the Sigma LPS preparation may nevertheless influence the transcriptional profile attributed to TLR4 stimulation.Holly R Rutledge, Weiwen Jiang, Jun Yang, Laura A Warg, David A Schwartz, David S Pisetsky, Ivana V Yang

TAK-242 selectively suppresses Toll-like receptor 4-signaling mediated by the intracellular domain.
TAK-242, a small-molecule antisepsis agent, has shown to suppress lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation. In this study, we demonstrate that TAK-242 is a selective inhibitor of Toll-like receptor (TLR)-4 signaling. TAK-242 almost completely suppressed production of nitric oxide (NO) or tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha induced by a TLR4-specific ligand, ultra-pure LPS, in mouse RAW264.7, human U-937 and P31/FUJ cells, whereas this agent showed little effect on other TLR ligands, Pam(3)CSK(4) (TLR1/2), peptidoglycan (TLR2/6), double strand RNA (TLR3), R-848 (TLR7) and CpG oligonucleotide (TLR9). Furthermore, TAK-242 potently inhibited nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB activation induced by ultra-pure LPS in HEK293 cells transiently expressing TLR4 and co-receptors, myeloid differentiation protein-2 (MD2) and CD14, whereas this agent showed little effect on other TLRs, TLR1/2, TLR2/6, TLR3, TLR5, TLR7 and TLR9. TAK-242 also inhibited ligand-independent NF-kappaB activation resulting from over-expression of TLR4. Although chimera receptors, which are consist of the extracellular domain of CD4 and the intracellular domain of human or mouse TLR4, showed constitutive NF-kappaB activation, TAK-242 potently inhibited the signaling from CD4-TLR4 chimera receptors. In contrast, the NF-kappaB activation mediated by TLR4 adaptors, myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88), TIR-associated protein (TIRAP), Toll/IL-1R homology (TIR)-domain-containing adaptor protein-inducing interferon-beta (TRIF) or TRIF-related adaptor molecule (TRAM) was not affected by TAK-242. TAK-242 is therefore a selective inhibitor of signaling from the intracellular domain of TLR4 and represents a novel therapeutic approach to the treatment of TLR4-mediated diseases.Tomohiro Kawamoto, Masayuki Ii, Tomoyuki Kitazaki, Yuji Iizawa, Hiroyuki Kimura
