Retinoic Acid Selectively Inhibits Lipopolysaccharide Induction of Tissue Factor Gene Expression in Human Monocytes

Paul Oeth, Jin Yao, Sao-Tah Fan, and Nigel Mackman

From the Departments of Immunology and Vascular Biology, The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA.

Expression of tissue factor (TF) by activated monocytes in several diseases leads to disseminated intravascular coagulation. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced monocyte TF expression is downregulated by the nuclear hormone all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). In this study, we examined the mechanism by which ATRA inhibits monocyte TF expression. We show that ATRA selectively inhibited LPS induction of TF expression in human monocytes and monocytic THP-1 cells without affecting LPS induction of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha ) and interleukin-8 (IL-8). Inhibition of TF expression occurred at the level of transcription as determined by nuclear run-on. ATRA did not significantly alter the binding or functional activity of the transcription factors c-Fos/c-Jun and c-Rel/p65, which are required for LPS induction of the TF promoter in monocytic cells. In contrast to the ATRA inhibition of the endogenous TF gene, LPS induction of the cloned TF promoter was not inhibited by ATRA in transiently transfected THP-1 cells. Our results demonstrate that ATRA selectively inhibited LPS-induced TF gene transcription in human monocytic cells by a mechanism that does not involve repression of AP-1- or NF-kappa B-mediated transcription.
