Exposure of macrophages to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces a hypo-responsive state to a second challenge with LPS that is termed LPS tolerance. LPS tolerance is also induced by pre-exposure to lipopeptides and lipoteichoic acid, which trigger Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2-mediated signaling. LPS signaling involves at least two pathways: a MyD88-dependent cascade that is essential for production of inflammatory cytokines and a MyD88-independent cascade that mediates the expression of IFN-inducible genes. We analyzed the induction of LPS tolerance by several microbial components in mouse peritoneal macrophages. Pre-exposure to LPS led to impaired activation of both the pathways. In contrast, mycoplasmal lipopeptides did not affect the MyD88-independent pathway, but impaired the MyD88-dependent signaling by inhibiting LPS-mediated activation of IL-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK) 1. The induction of LPS tolerance by recently identified TLR ligands was analyzed. Pretreatment with double-stranded RNA, which triggers the activation of TLR3, led to defective activation of the MyD88-independent, but not the MyD88-dependent, pathway. Imidazoquinoline compounds, which are recognized by TLR7, had no effect on the MyD88-independent pathway, but inhibited LPS-induced activation of MyD88-dependent signaling through down-regulation of IRAK1 expression. Thus, each microbial component induced LPS tolerance in macrophages.
