ABSTRACT
Since its discovery over three decades ago, signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) has been extensively studied as a central mediator for interferons (IFNs) signaling and antiviral defense. Here, using genetic and biochemical assays, we unveil Thr748 as a conserved IFN-independent phosphorylation switch in Stat1, which restricts IFN signaling and promotes innate inflammatory responses following the recognition of the bacterial-derived toxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Genetically engineered mice expressing phospho-deficient threonine748-to-alanine (T748A) mutant Stat1 are resistant to LPS-induced lethality. Of note, T748A mice exhibited undisturbed IFN signaling, as well as total expression of Stat1. Further, the T748A point mutation of Stat1 recapitulates the safeguard effect of the genetic ablation of Stat1 following LPS-induced lethality, indicating that the Thr748 phosphorylation contributes inflammatory functionalities of Stat1. Mechanistically, LPS-induced Toll-like receptor 4 endocytosis activates a cell-intrinsic IκB kinase-mediated Thr748 phosphorylation of Stat1, which promotes macrophage inflammatory response while restricting the IFN and anti-inflammatory responses. Depletion of macrophages restores the sensitivity of the T748A mice to LPS-induced lethality. Together, our study indicates a phosphorylation-dependent modular functionality of Stat1 in innate immune responses IFN phospho-tyrosine dependent and inflammatory phospho-threonine dependent. Better understanding of the Thr748 phosphorylation of Stat1 may uncover advanced pharmacologically targetable molecules and offer better treatment modalities for sepsis, a disease that claims millions of lives annually.
