Abstract

Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) can be induced by various stimuli, one of which is interleukin-6 (IL-6). Therefore, the aim of this study was to elucidate the molecular mechanisms responsible for IL-6-dependent HO-1 induction in the liver. The IL-6-dependent HO-1 regulation in rat primary hepatocytes and HepG2 hepatoma cells was studied by Northern and Western blot analyses, HO-1 promoter reporter gene assays and EMSA. The HO-1 expression was transcriptionally induced by IL-6 in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Activation of signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) factors by the IL-6 receptor was crucial for HO-1 induction. By contrast, negative regulation of HO-1 expression appeared to be mediated through the SH2-domain-containing tyrosine phosphatase-2 (SHP2)/ suppressors of cytokine signaling-3 (SOCS3) binding site within the gp130 IL-6 receptor subunit. Among the three putative STAT binding elements (SBE) in the HO-1 promoter, only the distal one was functional and when deleted, the remaining Luc induction was completely obliterated by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor LY294002. The HO-1 SBE3 mediates HO-1 gene induction by IL-6 mainly via activation of the Jak/STAT pathway.
