NF-kappaB activation is classically defined as a transient response initiated by the degradation of IkappaB inhibitor proteins leading to nuclear import of NF-kappaB and culminating with the resynthesis of IkappaBalpha and subsequent inactivation of the transcription factor. Although this type of regulation is considered the paradigm for NF-kappaB activation, other regulatory profiles are known to exist. By far the most common of these is chronic or persistent activation of NF-kappaB. In comparison, regulation of NF-kappaB in a biphasic manner represents a profile that is scarcely documented and whose biological significance remains poorly understood. Here we show using differentiated skeletal muscle cells, that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) induces NF-kappaB activation in a biphasic manner, Unlike the first transient phase, which is terminated within 1 h of cytokine addition, the second phase persists for an additional 24-36 h. Biphasic activation is mediated at both the levels of NF-kappaB DNA binding and transactivation function, and both phases are dependent on the IKK/26 S proteasome pathway. We find that regulation of the first transient phase is mediated by the degradation and subsequent resynthesis of IkappaBalpha, as well as by a TNF-induced expression of A20. Second phase activity correlates with persistent down-regulation of both lkappaBalpha and IkappaBbeta proteins, derived from a continuous TNF signal. Finally, we demonstrate that inhibition of NF-kappaB prior to initiation of the second phase of activity inhibits cytokine-mediated loss of muscle proteins. We propose that the biphasic activation of NF-kappaB in response to TNF may play a key regulatory role in skeletal muscle wasting associated with cachexia.
