Mills,*,† and James Harris*,† Autophagy controls IL-1b secretion by regulating inflammasome activation and by targeting pro–IL-1b for degradation. In this article, we show that inhibition of autophagy, either with the PI3K inhibitors 3-methyladenine, wortmannin, and LY294002 or with small interfering RNA against autophagy proteins augmented the secretion of IL-23 by human and mouse macrophages and dendritic cells in response to specific TLR agonists. This process occurred at the transcriptional level and was dependent on reactive oxygen species and IL-1R signaling; it was abrogated with an IL-1R antagonist or with IL-1–neutralizing Abs, whereas treatment with either rIL-1a or IL-1b induced IL-23 secretion. Dendritic cells treated with LPS and 3-methyladenine secreted Downloaded from enhanced levels of both IL-1b and IL-23, and supernatants from these cells stimulated the innate secretion of IL-17, IFN-g, and IL-22 by gd T cells. These data demonstrate that autophagy has a potentially pivotal role to play in the induction and regulation of inflammatory responses by innate immune cells, largely driven by IL-1 and its consequential effects on IL-23 secretion.

Conversely, autophagosomes ganelles, and regulates the catabolism of macromolecules during have been shown to target both pro–IL-1b and the inflammasome nutrient deprivation. More recently, autophagy has been shown components ASC and NLRP3 within cells, thus directly regulating to regulate inflammation and immune responses to infection.

Moreover, both particular, autophagy can mediate the intracellular killing of some IL-1b and IL-1a induce autophagy in macrophages (15), sug- bacteria by macrophages (1) and is involved in the presentation of gesting that these cytokines might regulate their own secretion.
