IL-1 alpha, like IL-1 beta, possesses multiple inflammatory and immune properties. However, unlike IL-1 beta, the cytokine is present intracellularly in healthy tissues and is not actively secreted. Rather, IL-1 alpha translocates to the nucleus and participates in transcription. Here we show that intracellular IL-1 alpha is a chromatin-associated cytokine and highly dynamic in the nucleus of living cells. During apoptosis, IL-1 alpha concentrates in dense nuclear foci, which markedly reduces its mobile nature. In apoptotic cells, IL-1 alpha is retained within the chromatin fraction and is not released along with the cytoplasmic contents. To simulate the in vivo inflammatory response to cells undergoing different mechanisms of death, lysates of cells were embedded in Matrigel plugs and implanted into mice. Lysates from cells undergoing necrosis recruited cells of the myeloid lineage into the Matrigel, whereas lysates of necrotic cells lacking IL-1 alpha failed to recruit an infiltrate. In contrast, lysates of cells undergoing apoptotic death were inactive. Cells infiltrating the Matrigel were due to low concentrations (20-50 pg) of the IL-1 alpha precursor containing the receptor interacting C-terminal, whereas the N-terminal propiece containing the nuclear localization site failed to do so. When normal keratinocytes were subjected to hypoxia, the constitutive IL-1 alpha precursor was released into the supernatant. Thus, after an ischemic event, the IL-1 alpha precursor is released by hypoxic cells and incites an inflammatory response by recruiting myeloid cells into the area. Tissues surrounding the necrotic site also sustain damage from the myeloid cells. Nuclear trafficking and differential release during necrosis vs. apoptosis demonstrate that inflammation by IL-1 alpha is tightly controlled.
