ROR alpha plays a crucial role in regulating macrophage pro-inflammatory responses, and its deficiency results in reduced susceptibility to LPS-induced endotoxic shock. This study highlights the impact of ROR alpha-mediated regulation of macrophages on the immune response to LPS.
The transcription factor Related Orphan Receptor Alpha (ROR alpha) plays an important role in regulating circadian rhythm, inflammation, metabolism and cellular development. Herein we show that in the absence of functional ROR alpha in mice there is reduced susceptibility to LPS-induced endotoxic shock, with selective decreases in release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Treatment of mice with a ROR alpha selective synthetic inhibitor also reduced the severity of LPS-induced endotoxemia. The reduction in responses in Rora deficient mice was associated with an alterations in metabolic and pro-inflammatory functions of macrophages, both in vivo peritoneal macrophages and in vitro generated bone marrow derived macrophages. Using LysM(Cre)Rora(fl/sg) mice the reduced susceptibility to LPS was shown to be specific to Rora expression in the macrophages. This study identifies that Rora-mediated regulation of macrophages impacts on the pro-inflammatory responses elicited by LPS.
