Proteasome inhibitors, the well-known inhibitors of NF-{kappa}B, are recently considered therapeutic agents for inflammation. However, the anti-inflammatory properties of these agents have not been fully evaluated. In this report we describe a novel effect of proteasome inhibitors on the expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) in mesangial cells. We found that proteasome inhibitor MG132 dose-dependently induced expression of MCP-1 at the transcriptional level. The stimulatory effect was similarly observed with other proteasome inhibitors (proteasome inhibitor 1 and lactacystin) and in other cell types (NRK fibroblasts). The 5'-flanking region of the MCP-1 gene contains multiple AP-1 sites. To explore the mechanisms involved, we examined the effects of proteasome inhibition on the AP-1 pathway. Northern blot analysis showed that MG132 rapidly induced the expression of c-jun, but not c-fos. Immunoblot analysis showed that MG132 prevented degradation of c-Jun protein. Kinase assay revealed that c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) was rapidly activated by MG132. Consistent with these results, a reporter assay showed that AP-1 activity was up-regulated after treatment with MG132. Curcumin, a pharmacological inhibitor of the JNK-AP-1 pathway, abrogated the induction of MCP-1 by MG132. Similarly, stable transfection with a dominant-negative mutant of c-Jun attenuated both MG132-induced activation of AP-1 and expression of MCP-1. The transcriptional activation by proteasome inhibitors was observed not only in MCP-1, but also in other AP-1-dependent genes, including stromelysin and mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase 1. These data revealed that proteasome inhibition triggered the expression of MCP-1 and other genes via the multistep induction of the JNK-c-Jun/AP-1 pathway.
