Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are mammalian homologues of the
Drosophila Toll receptors and are thought to have roles
in innate recognition of bacteria. We demonstrated that TLR 2, 4, 6,
and 8 but not TLR5 were expressed on mouse bone marrow-derived mast
cells (BMMCs). Using BMMCs from the genetically TLR4-mutated strain
C3H/HeJ, we demonstrated that functional TLR4 was required for a full
responsiveness of BMMCs to produce inflammatory cytokines (IL-1
,
TNF-
, IL-6, and IL-13) by LPS stimulation. TLR4-mediated stimulation
of mast cells by LPS was followed by activation of NF-
B but not by
stress-activated protein kinase/c-Jun NH2-terminal
kinase signaling. In addition, in the cecal ligation and
puncture-induced acute septic peritonitis model, we demonstrated that
genetically mast cell-deficient W/Wv mice that
were reconstituted with TLR4-mutated BMMCs had significantly higher
mortality than W/Wv mice reconstituted with
TLR4-intact BMMCs. Higher mortality of TLR4-mutated BMMC-reconstituted
W/Wv mice was well correlated with defective
neutrophil recruitment and production of proinflammatory cytokines in
the peritoneal cavity. Taken together, these observations provide
definitive evidence that mast cells play important roles in exerting
the innate immunity by releasing inflammatory cytokines and recruitment
of neutrophils after recognition of enterobacteria through TLR4 on mast
cells.
