The present study thus investigates such mechanisms in the THP1 cell line and human monocytes. PMA treatment to THP1 cells induced CD11b, TLR2, TLR4, CD36, IRAK1, IRAK3, and IRAK4 expression, IRAK1 kinase activity, PKCd and JNK phosphorylation, AP-1 and NF-kB activation, and secretory IL-1b production. Moreover, PMA- induced IL-1b production was significantly reduced in the presence of TLR2, TLR4, and CD11b Abs. Rottlerin, a PKCd-specific inhibitor, significantly reduced PMA-induced IL-1b production as well as CD11b, TLR2 expression, and IRAK1–JNK activation. In PKCd wild-type overexpressing THP1 cells, IRAK1 kinase activity and IL-1b production were significantly augmented, whereas recombinant inactive PKCd and PKCd small interfering RNA significantly inhibited basal and PMA-induced IRAK1 activation and IL-1b production. Endogenous PKCd–IRAK1 interaction was observed in quiescent cells, and this interaction was Downloaded from regulated by PMA. IRAK1/4 inhibitors, their small interfering RNAs, and JNK inhibitor also attenuated PMA-induced IL-1b production. NF-kB activation inhibitor and SN50 peptide inhibitor, however, failed to affect PMA-induced IL-1b production. A similar role of IRAK1 in IL-1b production and its regulation by PKCd was evident in the primary human monocytes, thus signifying the importance of our finding. To our knowledge, the results obtained demonstrate for the first time that IRAK1 and PKCd functionally interact to regulate IL-1b production in monocytic cells. A novel mechanism of IL-1b production that involves TLR2, CD11b, and the PKCd/IRAK1/JNK/AP-1 axis is thus being proposed.

IL-1b is induced by TLRs or by AP-1 pathways (9–11). IL-1b induces the activation of NF-kBand cytokines such as TNF or IL-1b itself (2, 3). Before secretion, the JNK pathways by recruiting MyD88, IRAK1, TNFR-associated inactive form of the cytokine is processed by caspase-1, leading factor 6, and TGF-b–activated kinase 1 (1, 9).
