Of Inflammasomes and Alarmins: IL-1B and IL-1A in Kidney Disease BRIEF REVIEW www.jasn.org Of Inflammasomes and Alarmins: IL-1b and IL-1a in Kidney Disease Hans-Joachim Anders Nephrologisches Zentrum, Medizinische Klinik und Poliklinik IV, Klinikum der Ludwig-Maximilians Universität, Munich, Germany ABSTRACT Kidney injury implies danger signaling and a response by the immune system. The enigmatic importance for the regulation inflammasome is a central danger recognition platform that triggers local and of systemic and tissue inflammation, systemic inflammation. In immune cells, inflammasome activation causes the release pro- and anti-inflammatory factors bal- of mature IL-1b and of the alarmin IL-1a.

Thus, the inflammasome-IL-1a/IL-b-IL-1R pathways (Figure 1).4,5 system is a central element of kidney inflammation and the systemic consequences.

Activated or dying cells re- lease all sorts of cytokines of the IL-1 family that specifically interact with several transmembrane surface receptors present on most cell types of the body. Some induce cell activation (IL-1R, IL-18R, IL-36R), others inhibit cell activation (IL-33R, TIGIRR, SIGIRR).

    Growth Factor Data Sheet GoldBio growth factors are manufactured for RESEARCH USE ONLY and cannot be sold for human consumption! Interleukin-36G (IL36G) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays an important role in the pathophysiology of several diseases. IL36A, IL36B and IL36G (formerly IL1F6, IL1F8, and IL1F9) are IL1 family members that signal through the IL1 receptor family members IL1Rrp2 (IL1RL2) and IL1RAcP. IL36G is secreted when transfected into 293-T cells and could constitute part of an independent signaling system analogous to that of IL1A and IL1B receptor agonist and interleukin-1 receptor type I (IL1R1). Furthermore, IL36G also can function as an agonist of NFκB activation through the orphan IL1- receptor-related protein 2. Human IL36G (152 a.a.) shares 58%, 59%, 68% and 69% amino acid sequence identity with mouse, rat, bovine and equine IL36G, respectively, and 23-57% amino acid sequence identity with other family members.

E. Kaufmann,1 and Jeroen Maertzdorf1 Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/jid/article-abstract/214/3/464/2577344 by Deutsches Rheumaforschungs Zentrum user on 26 June 2019 1Department of Immunology, Max Planck Institute for Infection Biology, and 2ZIBI Graduate School Berlin, Germany Tuberculosis remains a major killer worldwide, not the least because of our incomplete knowledge of protective and pathogenic immune mechanism. The roles of the interleukin 1 (IL-1) and interleukin 18 pathways in host defense are well established, as are their regulation through the inflammasome complex. In contrast, the regulation of interleukin 36γ (IL-36γ), a recently described member of the IL-1 family, and its immunological relevance in host defense remain largely unknown. Here we show that Myco- bacterium tuberculosis infection of macrophages induces IL-36γ production in a 2-stage-regulated fashion. In the first stage, mi- crobial ligands trigger host Toll-like receptor and MyD88-dependent pathways, leading to IL-36γ secretion. In the second stage, endogenous IL-1β and interleukin 18 further amplify IL-36γ synthesis. The relevance of this cytokine in the control of M. tuber- culosis is demonstrated by IL-36γ–induced antimicrobial peptides and IL-36 receptor–dependent restriction of M. tuberculosis growth. Thus, we provide first insight into the induction and regulation of the proinflammatory cytokine IL-36γ during tuberculosis. Keywords.

Activation of the inflammasome results in the maturation of inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-1 β and IL-18, and a form of cell death known as pyroptosis. Owing to the conserved nature of its ligand, AIM2 is important during immune recognition of multiple pathogens. Additionally, AIM2 is also capable of recognizing host DNA during cellular damage or stress, thereby contributing to sterile inflammatory diseases. Inflammation, either in response to pathogens or due to sterile cellular damage, is at the center of the most prevalent and life-threatening liver diseases. Therefore, during the last 15 years, the study of inflammasome activation in the liver has emerged as a new research area in hepatology. Here, we discuss the known functions of AIM2 in the pathogenesis of different hepatic diseases, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), hepatitis B, liver fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
