IFN-alphabeta functions in the transition from innate to adaptive immunity and may impinge on the interaction of Mycobacterium tuberculosis with its host. Infection by M. tuberculosis causes IFN-alphabeta secretion and down-regulation of IFN-alphabeta signaling in human APC and the human monocytic cell line THP-1, which provides a model for these studies. Neutralization of secreted IFN-alphabeta prevents inhibition of IFN-alpha signaling during infection, but several lines of evidence distinguish inhibition due to infection from a negative feedback response to only IFN-alphabeta. First, greater inhibition of IFN-alpha-stimulated STAT-I tyrosine phosphorylation occurs 3 days postinfection than I or 3 days after IFN-alphabeta pretreatment. Second. LPS also induces IFN-alphabeta secretion and causes IFN-alphabeta-dependent down-regulation of IFN-alpha signaling, yet the inhibition differs from that caused by infection. Third. IFN-alpha signaling is inhibited when cells are grown in conditioned medium collected from infected cells 1 day postinfection. but not if it is collected 3 days postinfection. Because IFN-alphabeta is stable, the results with conditioned medium suggest the involvement of an additional, labile substance during infection. Further characterizing signaling for effects of infection, we found that cell surface. IFN-alphabeta receptor is not reduced by infection, but that infection increases association of protein tyrosine phosphatase le with the receptor and with tyrosine kinase 2. Concomitantly, IFN-alpha stimulation of tyrosine kinase 2 tyrosine phosphorylation and kinase activity decreases in infected cells. Moreover, infection reduces the abundance of JAK-1 and tyrosine-phosphorylated JAK-1. Thus, the distinctive down-regulation of IFN-alpha signaling by M. tuberculosis occurs together with a previously undescribed combination of inhibitory intracellular events.
