Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induction of the gene encoding interleukin 12 p40 requires remodeling of a promoter-encompassing nucleosome and the Toll-like receptor (TLR)−mediated activation of a c-Rel−containing complex. Analysis of TLR4-mutant mice revealed that remodeling requires TLR signaling. However, Rel proteins and other proteins required for transcription of an integrated p40 promoter were insufficient for remodeling. c-Rel was also unnecessary for remodeling, as remodeling was observed in c-Rel^(-/-) macrophages, which lack p40 transcripts. These results suggest that remodeling requires TLR signaling pathways that diverge from the c-Rel activation pathways. The factors that stimulate remodeling may represent, therefore, newly identified targets of TLR signaling and of agents that regulate inflammatory responses and T_H1 development.
