TNF-{alpha} Gene Expression in Macrophages: Regulation by NF-{kappa}B Is Independent of c-Jun or C/EBPß1

The interaction of transcription factors is critical in the regulation of gene expression. This study characterized the mechanism by which NF-{kappa}B family members interact to regulate the human TNF-{alpha} gene. A 120-bp TNF-{alpha} promoter-reporter, possessing binding sites for NF-{kappa}B ({kappa}B3), C/EBPß (CCAAT/enhancer binding protein ß), and c-Jun, was activated by cotransfection of plasmids expressing the wild-type version of each of these transcription factors. Employing adenoviral vectors, dominant-negative versions of NF-{kappa}B p65, and c-Jun, but not C/EBPß, suppressed (p < 0.05–0.001) LPS-induced TNF-{alpha} secretion in primary human macrophages. Following LPS stimulation, NF-{kappa}B p50/p65 heterodimers bound to the {kappa}B3 site and c-Jun to the -103 AP-1 site of the TNF-{alpha} promoter. By transient transfection, NF-{kappa}B p65 and p50 synergistically activated the TNF-{alpha} promoter. In contrast, no synergy was observed between NF-{kappa}B p65, with or without NF-{kappa}B p50, and c-Jun or C/EBPß, even in the presence of the coactivator p300. The contribution of the upstream {kappa}B binding sites was also examined. Following LPS stimulation, the {kappa}B1 site bound both NF-{kappa}B p50/p65 heterodimers and p50 homodimers. The binding by NF-{kappa}B p50 homodimers to the {kappa}B1, but not to the {kappa}B3, site contributed to the inability of macrophages to respond to a second LPS challenge. In summary, adjacent {kappa}B3 and AP-1 sites in the human TNF-{alpha} promoter contribute independently to LPS-induced activation. Although both the {kappa}B1 and {kappa}B3 sites bound transcriptionally active NF-{kappa}B p50/p65 heterodimers, only the {kappa}B1 site contributed to down-regulation by NF-{kappa}B p50 homodimers.
