Several reports have indicated that cell lineages apart from NK and T cells can also express IFN-{gamma}. However, the biological relevance of this finding is uncertain. We show in this study that bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) express IFN-{gamma} at the mRNA and protein level early after infection with Chlamydia pneumoniae. Increased IFN-{gamma} mRNA accumulation by infected BMMs is early, transient, and requires both bacterial and host protein synthesis. The induction of IFN-{gamma} mRNA levels is independent of IL-12 and was dramatically enhanced in IL-10-/- BMMs. Such IL-10-/- BMMs contained less bacteria than the wild-type controls, whereas IFN-{gamma}R-/- BMMs showed increased C. pneumoniae load. Inducible NO synthase (iNOS) also participates in the control of bacterial load, as shown by the enhanced numbers of C. pneumoniae in iNOS-/- BMMs. However, the increased accumulation of iNOS mRNA and NO in C. pneumoniae-infected BMMs depended on the presence of IFN-{alpha}{beta}, but was independent of IFN-{gamma}. Interestingly, IFN-{alpha}{beta} are also required for increased IFN-{gamma} mRNA accumulation in C. pneumoniae-infected BMMs. Accordingly, IFN-{alpha}{beta}R-/- BMMs showed higher levels of C. pneumoniae than wild-type BMMs. Our findings unravel an autocrine/paracrine macrophage activation pathway by showing an IFN-{alpha}{beta}-dependent IFN-{gamma} and iNOS induction in response to infection, which protects macrophages against intracellular bacterial growth.
