【 摘 要 】

Burkholderia pseudomallei, a causative agent of melioidosis, is a facultative intracellular Gram-negative bacterium that can survive and multiply inside the macrophages. Toll-like receptors are one class of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that have been documented to play significant role in B. pseudomallei infection. In the present study, we investigated a potential role of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 1 and 2 (NOD1 and NOD2), cytoplasmic pattern recognition receptors, in B. pseudomallei-infected mouse macrophage cell line RAW 264.7. Both live and heat-killed B. pseudomallei were able to up-regulate NOD1 and NOD2 expression in a time-dependent manner. Marked reduction of a negative regulator, suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3), expression was observed only in B. pseudomallei-infected NOD2-depleted macrophages and not in NOD1-depleted macrophages. The decrease in SOCS3 expression also led to an increase in IFN-γ responsiveness as judged by an enhanced STAT-1 ph...
