主 题:TLR3 TRIF ZCCHC3 innate immune response signaling
摘 要:Toll-like receptor 3(TLR3)-mediated signaling is important for host defense against RNA virus.Upon viral RNA stimulation,toll and interleukin-1 receptor domain-containing adaptor inducing IFN-p(TRIF)is recruited to TLR3 and then undergoes oligomerization,which is required for the recruitment of downstream molecules to transmit signals.Here,we identified zinc finger CCHC-type containing 3(ZCCHC3)as a positive regulator of TLR3-mediated signaling.Overexpression of ZCCHC3 promoted transcription of downstream antiviral genes stimulated by the synthetic TLR3 ligand poly(I:C).ZCCHC3-deficiency markedly inhibited TLR3-but not TLR4-mediated induction of type I interferons(IFNs)and proinflammatory cytokines.Zcc/7c3-/-mice were more resistant to poly(l:C)-but not lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory death.Mechanistically,ZCCHC3 promoted recruitment of TRIF to TLR3 after poly(l:C)stimulation.Our findings reveal that ZCCHC3 plays an important role in TLR3-mediated innate immune response by promoting the recruitment of TRIF to TLR3 after ligand stimulation.
