Description |
Cystatin could completely cure experimental visceral leishmaniasis by switching the
differentiation of Th2 cells to Th1 type, as well as upregulating NO, and activation of NF-jB
played a major role in these processes. Analysis of upstream signaling events revealed
that TLR 2/4-mediated MyD88-dependent participation of IL-1R-activated kinase (IRAK)1,
TNF receptor-associated factor (TRAF)6 and TGFb-activated kinase (TAK)1 is essential to
induce cystatin-mediated IjB kinase (IKK)/NF-jB activation in macrophages. Cystatin plus
IFN-c activated the IKK complex to induce phosphorylation-mediated degradation of p105,
the physiological partner and inhibitor of the MEK kinase, tumor progression locus 2 (Tpl-
2). Consequently, Tpl-2 was liberated from p105, thereby stimulating activation of the
MEK/ERK MAPK cascade. Cystatin plus IFN-c-induced IKK-b post-transcriptionally modified
p65/RelA subunit of NF-jB by dual phosphorylation in infected phagocytic cells. IKK
induced the phosphorylation of p65 directly on Ser-536 residue whereas phosphorylation
on Ser 276 residue was by sequential activation of Tpl-2/MEK/ERK/MSK1. Collectively, the
present study indicates that cystatin plus IFN-c-induced MyD88 signaling may bifurcate at
the level of IKK, leading to a divergent pathway regulating NF-jB activation by IjBa
phosphorylation and by p65 transactivation through Tpl-2/MEK/ERK/MSK1.
