Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease characterized by excessive inflammation and production of pathogenic Abs. Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is a class IIb histone deacetylase. It has been reported that selective HDAC6 inhibition decreases inflammation in lupus mouse models. In this study, sex- and age-matched wild-type (WT) and HDAC6-/- mice on the C57BL/6 background were administered 0.5 ml of pristane or PBS i.p. at 8-12 wk of age and were euthanized 10 d later. At sacrifice, body weight and spleen weight were measured, sera were collected, and splenocytes and peritoneal cells were harvested for flow cytometry. We found pristane administration increased the spleen weight with no difference between WT and HDAC6-/- mice. Pristane administration promoted the population of CD11b+Ly6C++ inflammatory monocytes and CD11b+Ly6G+ neutrophils. Peritoneal recruitment of these inflammatory monocytes and neutrophils was significantly decreased in HDAC6-/- mice compared with the WT mice. Flow cytometry results showed that the number of CD69+ T and B cells was increased in HDAC6-/- mice. Pristane administration also induced the IFN signature genes as determined by RT-qPCR. Furthermore, IFN signature genes were not affected in HDAC6-/- mice compared with the WT mice. In vitro studies in J774A.1 cells revealed that the selective HDAC6 inhibitor (ACY-738) increased acetylation of NF-κB while increasing Stat1 phosphorylation, which resulted in inducible NO synthase production in LPS/IFN-γ-stimulated cells. Taken together, these results demonstrate that although HDAC6 inhibition may inhibit some inflammatory pathways, others remain unaffected.
