The purpose of the present study was
to examine the regulation of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-
and
interleukin (IL)-6 by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in C2C12 myoblasts and
mouse skeletal muscle. LPS produced dose- and time-dependent increases
in TNF-
and IL-6 mRNA content in C2C12 myoblasts. The LPS-induced
cytokine response could be mimicked by peptidoglycan from the cell wall of Staphylococcus aureus but not by zymosan A, a cell wall
component from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Ongoing protein
synthesis was not necessary for the increase in the two cytokine mRNAs.
The transcriptional inhibitor
5,6-dichloro-
-D-ribofuranosyl-benzimidazole blocked LPS-stimulated IL-6 mRNA expression without changing its mRNA half-life. The anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid dexamethasone selectively blocked LPS-stimulated IL-6 mRNA accumulation but not
TNF-
. In contrast, the proteasomal inhibitor MG-132 blocked TNF-
mRNA expression but not IL-6. Exposure of myoblasts to LPS was
associated with a rapid decrease in the inhibitor of nuclear factor-
B (I
B,
, and
), and this response was also blocked by MG-132. Treatment of myocytes with IL-1 or TNF-
also increased IL-6 mRNA content, but the increase in IL-6 mRNA due to LPS could not
be prevented by pretreatment with antagonists to either IL-1 or TNF.
Under in vivo conditions, LPS increased the plasma concentration of
TNF-
and IL-6 and stimulated the accumulation of their mRNAs in
multiple tissues including skeletal muscle from wild-type mice. In
contrast, the ability of LPS to stimulate the same cytokines was
markedly decreased in mice that harbor a mutation in the Toll-like receptor 4. Our data suggest that LPS stimulates cytokine expression not only in classical immune tissues but also in skeletal muscle.
