In some colitis models, such as IL-1 knock-out (KO) mice, IL-12 triggers intestinal inflammation. An abundant amount of IL-12 is produced by intestinal macrophages in response to stimulation by commensal bacteria in IL-1 KO mice. Intact bacteria are more potent inducers of macrophage IL-12 production than cell surface components in this model. This suggested that cell surface receptor signalling and intracellular pathogen recognition mechanisms are important for the induction of IL-12. We addressed the importance of intracellular recognition mechanisms and demonstrated that signal transducers and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) signalling activated bacterial phagocytosis and was involved in the induction of abnormal IL-12 production. In IL-1 KO mouse bone marrow-derived (BM) macrophages, Escherichia coli stimulation induced increased IL-12p7 production compared to lipopolysaccharide combined with interferon (IFN)-g treatment. Significant repression of IL-12 production was achieved by inhibition of phagocytosis with cytochalasin D, and inhibition of de novo protein synthesis with cycloheximide. Induction of IFN regulatory factors-1 and -8, downstream molecules of STAT1 and the key transcription factors for IK-12 transcription, following E. coli stimulation, were mediated by phagocytosis. Interestingly, STAT1 was activated after stimulation with E. coli in IL-1 KO BM macrophages, although IFN-g could not be detected. These data suggest that molecules other than IFN-g are involved in hyper-production mechanisms of IL-12 induced by E. coli stimulation. In conclusion, enteric bacteria stimulate excessive IL-12p7 production in IL-1 KO BM macrophages via phagocytosis-dependent signalling. Keywords: bacteria, IL-1, IL-12, macrophage, phagocytosis Introduction Prompt and thorough responses of the body s immune system to foreign antigens are of vital importance in its defence against foreign intrusion. However, improper or uncontrolled responses to such antigens result ultimately in excessive immune activity and disruption of normal homeostasis. Because the intestinal mucosa is always exposed to numerous commensal bacteria, it is believed that the gut may possess regulatory mechanisms that prevent excessive inflammatory responses against commensal bacteria. When this homeostatic regulation is disrupted, the constant presence of food and commensal bacteria antigens may cause excessive immune activation. Macrophages, the major population of tissue-resident mononuclear phagocytes, play key roles in bacterial recognition and elimination, as well as in the polarization of innate and adaptive immunity. Besides these classical anti-bacterial immune roles, it has become evident recently that several macrophage subsets also play an important role in immunological homeostasis maintenance. For example, they are involved in inflammation dampening via the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-1 and transforming growth factor (TGF)-b [1]. This is particularly important for the contribution of intestinal macrophages to gut mucosal homeostasis. It has been reported previously that intestinal macrophages do not express innate response receptors [2,3], and although these cells retain their 211 The Authors Clinical and Experimental Immunology 211 British Society for Immunology, Clinical and Experimental Immunology, 164:

Another recent study has revealed that murine intestinal macrophages express several anti-inflammatory molecules, such as IL-1. Moreover, such intestinal macrophages suppress intestinal dendritic cell (DC)-derived helper T cell (Th) 1 and Th17 immunity, in both a regulatory T cell (T reg)-dependent and an independent manner [6]. Intestinal macrophages show a similar phenotype to in vitro macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) differentiated macrophages, which have phagocytic ability and produce the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-1 [4]. Consistent with this observation, M-CSF is expressed at the lamina propria in both mouse and human intestine, and the number of intestinal macrophages in op/op mice, which lack M-CSF signalling, was decreased significantly [7,8]. Furthermore, in mice lacking intestinal macrophages, gut homeostasis is disrupted [9]. Taken together, these findings suggest that, by producing IL-1, intestinal macrophages prevent excessive immune responses to commensal organisms. IL-1 knockout (KO) mice develop spontaneous Th1-dominant chronic colitis and are used widely as an animal model for human inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) [1]. As enteric flora are required for the development of colitis in IL-1 KO mice, it is thought that proper recognition and responses to commensal bacteria are impaired in IL-1 KO mice, and that this dysfunction plays a key role in the development of intestinal inflammation akin to mouse and human IBD pathogenesis [11]. Previously, we demonstrated that IL-1 KO intestinal macrophages produce abnormally high levels of proinflammatory cytokines, such as IL-12, in response to bacteria [4]. In those experiments, we found that stimulation with whole bacteria, but not pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), can induce the production of large amounts of IL-12. This suggested that not only cell surface receptor signalling, such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs), but also intracellular pathogen recognition mechanisms are important for the production of IL-12 by IL-1 KO macrophages. Here, we show that phagocytosis and de novo protein synthesis are necessary stages leading to the activation of the signal transducers and activator of transcription (STAT)1-IFN regulatory factor (IRF)1/8 signalling pathway, which results subsequently in induction of maximal IL-12 production by IL-1 KO macrophages. Materials and methods Reagents Recombinant mouse M-CSF and IFN-g were purchased from R&D Systems (Minneapolis, MN, USA). Gel filtrated grade lipopolysaccharide (LPS; Escherichia coli O111:B4), cytochalasin D (CyD) and cycloheximide (CHX) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St Louis, MO, USA). Bacteria heat-killed antigen A Gram-negative non-pathogenic strain of E. coli (ATCC25922) was cultured with Luria Bertani (LB) medium. The bacteria were harvested and washed twice with ice-cold phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Bacterial suspensions were heated at 8 C for 3 min, then washed and resuspended in PBS, and stored at -8 C. The complete killing was confirmed with 24 h incubation at 37 C on plates. Mice Specific pathogen-free wild-type (WT) C57BL/6J mice were purchased from Charles River Japan, Inc. (Tokyo, Japan). These WT and IL-1 KO (C57BL/6J background) were housed at the animal centre of Keio University. All experiments using mice were approved by and performed according to the guidelines of the animal committee of Keio University. Preparation of bone marrow (BM)-derived macrophages WT and IL-1 KO mice aged 7 12 weeks were used to isolate BM cells from the femora. The BM-mononuclear cells were separated by gradient centrifugation, and purified CD11b + cells were obtained using a magnetic cell separation system (MACS; Miltenyi Biotech, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) with anti-mouse CD11b microbeads. To generate BMmacrophages, CD11b + cells (5 1 5 cells/ml) were cultured with M-CSF (2 ng/ml) for 7 days. BM-macrophages cells were plated at a density of cells per 6 4-mm-diameter culture dish and cultured overnight. Analysis of phagocytosis Luminol-bound microbeads (Kamakura Techno-Science, Kamakura, Japan) at a concentration of 2 mg/2 ml were added to recultured macrophages, from which luminescence was generated by reactive oxygen within phagosomes. The luminescence of each dish was quantified in a luminometer (Synergy 4; Biotek, Winooski, VT, USA) by integrating the signal for 5 s every minute at a sensitivity level of 2. We also examined the phagocytic ability of macrophages using whole bacteria antigens. After a 3-min stimulation with E. coli [K-12 strain, multiplicity of infection (MOI) = 1] labelled with Alexa Fluor 488 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) with or without CyD (1 mm), BM-macrophages were washed with PBS, harvested using ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) and washed with MACS buffer. Cells were incubated with 5 mg/ml CD11b monoclonal antibody (ebiosciences, San Diego, CA, USA) for 2 min at 4 C. After staining, cells were washed with MACS buffer, stained with propidium iodide and analysed using a fluorescence activated The Authors Clinical and Experimental Immunology 211 British Society for Immunology, Clinical and Experimental Immunology, 164:

Macrophages were then stimulated with 1 ng/ml LPS and 1 ng/ml of IFN-g, or heat-killed bacteria (MOI = 1).

Blots were visualized using an enhanced chemiluminescence kit (GE Healthcare, Buckinghamshire, UK). The antibodies used were antiphospho-stat1 tyrosine (Tyr) 71, anti-phospho-stat1 serine (Ser) 727 and anti-stat1 (Cell Signaling). Statistical analysis Statistical differences between two groups were tested using Student s t-test using GraphPad PRISM5 (GraphPad Inc., San Diego, CA, USA). Cytokine measurement A mouse inflammatory cytometric beads array (CBA) kit (BD Pharmingen) was used for measurement of cytokines in the culture supernatants. Samples were analysed using a FACSCalibur (BD Pharmingen) according to the manufacturer s specifications. Analysis of cytokine transcription by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qrt PCR) After 8 h stimulation by bacterial antigen, total RNA was isolated from macrophages using the RNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen Inc., Valencia, CA, USA) and cdna was synthesized with Omniscript reverse transcriptase (Qiagen). For qrt PCR, TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix and TaqMan Gene Expression Assays for murine IL-12p35, p4, IRF1, IRF8, IFN-g and b-actin (purchased from Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) were used. The PCRs were carried out in a thermocycler DNA engine, OPTICON2 (MJ Research, Waltham, MA, USA). Cycling conditions for PCR amplification were 5 C for 2 min, 95 C for 1 min and then 4 cycles of 95 C for 15 s followed by 6 C for 1 min. Immunoblotting Macrophages (1 1 5 cells/well) were washed with ice-cold PBS containing protease inhibitors, then lysed in 3 ml of lysis buffer (Pierce, Rockford, IL, USA) containing protease inhibitor cocktail (Sigma-Aldrich, Poole, UK), 1 mm phenylmethylsulphonylfluoride (PMSF) and 1 mm Na 3VO 4. After centrifugation, the supernatants were mixed with lithium dodecyl sulphate (LDS) sample buffer and reducing agent (Invitrogen) and electrophoresed on a Bis Tris 4 12% gradient polyacrylamide gel (Invitrogen). Separated proteins were transferred onto a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) and immunoblotted for specific antibodies as per the manufacturer s instructions. After blocking, primary antibodies were added at a 1:1 dilution overnight at 4 C.

As we reported previously, IL-1 KO BM-macrophages differentiated by M-CSF produced a large amount of IL-12p7 in response to whole bacteria stimulation compared with those in WT mice (Fig. 1b) [4]. These results led us to investigate whether innate immune receptors on the cell surface, such as TLR-4 for LPS, or intracellular pathogen recognition mechanisms are involved.

E. coli stimulation induces large amounts of IL-12p7 production compared with LPS and IFN-g combined treatments To resolve this issue, we have investigated the difference in IL-12 mrna transcription, protein production and signalling activation following stimulation with LPS plus IFN-g or whole bacteria antigen stimulation. LPS, a cell wall component of Gram-negative bacteria such as E. coli, is a typical PAMP. LPS stimulation alone is incapable of inducing excessive IL-12p7 production independently in IL-1 KO BM-macrophages (data not shown), but when administered with IFN-g, IL-12p7 production is increased substantially. Whole bacteria stimulation induced large amounts of IL-12 (Fig. 2a). The mrna transcription kinetics of p4 and p35 showed a higher maximum amplitude 9 h after stimulation and sustained higher transcription levels in the E. colistimulated group, while the LPS and IFN-g group only had a small, transient level of transcription at 3 h (Fig. 2b).

Expression of IL-12 was decreased strongly, although TNF-a, MCP-1 and IL-6 were not decreased significantly (Fig. 3c, Fig. S3). It is well known that IFN-g activates STAT1. Activation of STAT1 leads subsequently to synthesis and secretion of IL-12p35 and p4. STAT1 is activated by E. coli stimulation in IL-1 KO macrophages, not in WT (Fig. 6a).

The activation of IRF1 by IFN-g or TLR ligands was shown to be required for the activation of the p35 gene, whereas it did not affect p4 gene expression [12,13]. IRF8, another factor inducible by IFN-g, was shown to be involved in the expression of both the p35 and p4 genes in conditions in which IFN-g was used as a priming agent before TLR stimulation [14]. Therefore, we hypothesized that IFN-g-like protein expression is induced after E. coli recognition by the macrophages, and these proteins activate macrophages in an autocrine manner.

Western blot analysis was used to determine phospho-stat1 and total STAT1 expression levels.

This difference in kinetics suggests different mechanisms of signal transduction. As shown previously, IFN-g can induce STAT1 activation directly and rapidly. Therefore, we examined the possibility of IFN-g up-regulation in response to E. coli stimulation by IL-1 KO BM-macrophages. However, inconsistent with previously reported findings [15,16], IFN-g was not detected following E. coli treatment at both the mrna and protein levels in IL-1 KO BM-macrophages (Fig. S4). We also examined the effect of CyD-treatment on STAT1 phosphorylation at Tyr71 and Ser727 in E. coli-stimulated IL-1 KO BM-macrophages. As expected, STAT1 was not activated in samples in which phagocytosis was inhibited (Fig. 6b). Thus, these data suggest that phagocytic activity is necessary to mount a significant IL-12 response to bacterial stimulation in IL-1 KO BM-macrophages. Furthermore, the loss of E. coli-induced IL-12p35/p4 in the presence of CHX corresponded to a lack of STAT1 phosphorylation at Tyr71 and Ser727 (Fig. 6b). Taken together, these results suggest that phagocytosis and de novo protein synthesis are required for bacteria-induced STAT1 activation in IL-1 KO BM-macrophages. Conversely, STAT1 activation from LPS + IFN-g did not decrease with either CHX or CyD (Fig. S5). Discussion IL-12 is a key cytokine that drives naive T cells to differentiate into Th1 cells. In Crohn s disease, it has also been reported that the excessive production of IL-12 by macrophages and dendritic cells in response to commensal bacteria promotes the Th1 response [17]. Furthermore, IFN-g can promote the up-regulation of IL-12 production [18 2]. This locally Th1-skewed environment promotes the chronic intestinal inflammation seen in Crohn s disease. WT intestinal macrophages produce large amounts of IL-1 and suppress proinflammatory cytokine production, especially IL-12. Conversely, IL-1 KO mice are used as a model of Th1-dominant colitis because their intestinal macrophages produce abnormally high levels of proinflammatory cytokines in response to commensal bacteria. In previous studies the induction of IL-12 in monocytic cell lineages, such as monocytes, dendritic cells and cell lines such as THP-1, has been studied mainly under the stimulation of PAMPs (for example, LPS and peptidoglycan). However, regarding the physiological function of phagocytic cells such as macrophages, intracellular recognition mechanisms following bacterial phagocytosis should be investigated. Indeed, recent studies have identified several molecules that are related to intracellular bacterial recognition as susceptibility genes of IBD [21,22]. In the present study, we have demonstrated that intracellular bacterial recognition is important for IL-12 production by IL-1 KO BM-macrophages. Phagocytosis of bacteria followed by intracellular recognition activates STAT1 IRF signalling inducing production of higher amounts of IL-12p7. Our results demonstrate that stimulation with whole bacteria could induce relatively higher levels of IL-12 compared with the combined LPS and IFN-g stimulation, which is known to be a typical IL-12 inducer in the monocytic cell lineage [12,14,23]. The production of IFN-g by innate immune cells, such as natural killer cells, provides a strong feedback loop to sustain the production of high levels of IL-12p7 by activated macrophages [24]. IFN-g phosphorylates STAT1 and induces downstream signalling and The Authors Clinical and Experimental Immunology 211 British Society for Immunology, Clinical and Experimental Immunology, 164:
7 Intracellular bacteria recognition for IL-12 production in macrophage synthesis of proteins such as IRF1, IRF8, major histocompatibility complex class II and TLR-4. Thus, STAT1 signalling is known as a proinflammatory signal. Once activated, STAT1 binds to IFN-stimulated response elements and IFN-gactivated sequence domains in the promoter of genes such as the IRF family. IRF1 binds to the promoter region of the IL-12p35 gene, while IRF8 binds to the IL-12p4 promoter. Upon priming with IFN-g, IRF8 enhances expression of both the p35 and p4 genes [12,14]. Interestingly, LPS and IFN-g stimulation could only induce IL-12p4 and p35 temporarily, whereas E. coli stimulated the sustained induction of p4 and p35. Furthermore, the combined LPS and IFN-g stimulation did not fully enhance IL-12p35 transcription followed by lesser production of IL-12p7 (Fig. S2). These results suggest that transcriptional regulation of the IL-12 genes is quite different between E. coli stimulation and the combined LPS and IFN-g stimulation. E. coli is constructed with various components, including LPS, single-stranded DNA and flagellin. Because these factors bind to specific receptors and stimulate various signalling pathways, it is possible that they act synergistically to increase IL-12p7 production. Importantly, the inhibition of phagocytosis by CyD reduced E. coli stimulation-induced IL-12 production. As macrophages phagocytose bacteria and digest them in lysosomes, our results suggest that intracellular signalling pathways, in addition to surface receptor signalling, are important to IL-12 induction following bacterial stimulation. Furthermore, our results from experiments using the translation inhibitor CHX indicate that de novo protein synthesis following phagocytosis is required for E. coli stimulation-induced IL-12 production. As we expected, both IRF1 and IRF8 were up-regulated at the transcriptional and protein levels by bacterial stimulation. Importantly, up-regulation of both transcription factors was also dependent on phagocytosis. The process of phagocytosis and de novo protein synthesis may contribute to STAT1 activation. We hypothesized that macrophages produce IFN-g by phagocytosing E. coli, and that IFN-g activates macrophages through an autocrine loop [16]. While IFN-g could not be detected at the mrna or protein levels, we cannot deny the possibility that undetectable levels of IFN-g play a functional role. Therefore, it is possible that IFN-g-like factors may play a role in STAT1 activation. In IL-1 KO BM-macrophages, combined LPS and IFN-g rapidly induced both STAT1 and STAT3 phosphorylation. In contrast, E. coli stimulation did not induce STAT3 phosphorylation and only induced STAT1 phosphorylation at the late phase (Figs S6 and S7). Thus, this imbalance of STAT1 and STAT3 activation may contribute to bacteria-induced IL-12 hyper-production by phagocytic cells. In conclusion, we show here that phagocytosis, intracellular recognition of bacteria and new protein synthesis contribute to the maximum production of IL-12 by IL-1 KO BM-macrophages. We believe that the identification of intracellular signalling pathways activated in response to bacterial engulfment by innate immune cells is important in the context of the pathophysiology of chronic intestinal inflammation in IBD.
