CpG oligodeoxynucleotide (CpG ODN) cellular uptake into endosomes, the rate-limiting step of Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) signaling, is critical in eliciting innate immune responses. ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6) is a member of the Ras superfamily, which is critical to a wide variety of cellular events including endocytosis. Here, we found that inhibition of ARF6 by dominant mutants and siRNA impaired CpG ODN-mediated responses, whereas cells expressing the constitutively active ARF6 mutant enhanced CpG ODN-induced cytokine production. Inhibition of ARF6 impaired TLR9 trafficking into endolysosomes, thereby inhibiting proceed functional cleavage of TLR9. Additional studies showed that CpG ODN uptake was increased in ARF6-activated cells but impaired in ARF6-defective cells. Furthermore, cells pretreated with CpG ODN but not GpC ODN had increased CpG ODN uptake due to CpG ODN-induced ARF6 activity. Further studies with ARF6-defective and ARF6-activated cells demonstrated that class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3K) was required for downstream ARF6 regulation of CpG ODN uptake. Together, our findings demonstrate that a novel class III PI3K-ARF6 axis pathway mediates TLR9 signaling by regulating the cellular uptake of CpG ODN.
