Streptococcus pneumoniae (S. pneumoniae), a clinically important pathogen worldwide, causes serious invasive diseases, such as pneumonia, otitis media, and meningitis. The NLR family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome, an important component of the innate immune system, plays a key role in defense against pathogen infection; however the specific activation mechanism induced by S. pneumoniae infection is not fully understood. Here, primary mouse macrophages were selected as the in vitro cell model, and the effect of kinases on S. pneumoniae infection-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation was investigated in vivo and in vitro using the western blot/RT-PCR/Co-IP/immunofluorescence staining/ELISA with or without kinase inhibitor or siRNA pretreatment. In this study, we found that the formation of the NEK7-NLRP3 complex significantly increased during S. pneumoniae infection and that anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) were phosphorylated rapidly. ALK and JNK inhibitors significantly reduced the ability of bacterial killing, the gene expression of NLRP3 inflammasome, the formation of apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing caspase-recruitment domain (ASC) specks and the NEK7-NLRP3 complex, which in turn decreased the activation level of NLRP3 inflammasome-associated molecules and the maturation of interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß). In addition, ALK regulated the phosphorylation of JNK. Interestingly, the ALK/JNK/NEK7-NLRP3 signaling pathway is also involved in regulating pyroptosis and IL-1ß secretion triggered by S. pneumoniae infection. In conclusion, our data suggest, for the first time, that the ALK/JNK/NEK7-NLRP3 signaling pathway may play an important role in NLRP3 inflammasome activation and pyroptosis and consequently regulate the host immune response upon S. pneumoniae infection.
