To unravel the roles of LXRs in inflammation and immunity, we examined the function of LXRs in development of IFN-gamma-mediated inflammation using cultured rat brain astrocytes. LXR ligands inhibit neither STAT1 phosphorylation nor STAT1 translocation to the nucleus but, rather, inhibit STAT1 binding to promoters and the expression of IRF1, TNF alpha, and IL-6, downstream effectors of STAT1 action. Immunoprecipitation data revealed that LXR beta formed a trimer with PIAS1-pSTAT1, whereas LXR alpha formed a trimer with HDAC4-pSTAT1, mediated by direct ligand binding to the LXR proteins. In line with the fact that both PIAS1 and HDAC4 belong to the SUMO E3 ligase family, LXR beta and LXR alpha were SUMO-conjugated by PIAS1 or HDAC4, respectively, and SUMOylation was blocked by transient transfection of appropriate individual siRNAs, reversing LXR-induced suppression of IRF1 and TNF alpha expression. Together, our data show that SUMOylation is required for the suppression of STAT1-dependent inflammatory responses by LXRs in IFN-gamma-stimulated brain astrocytes.
