BACKGROUND: Tetra-O-methyl nordihydroguaiaretic acid, also known as terameprocol
(TMP), is a naturally occurring phenolic compound found in the resin of the
creosote bush. We have shown previously that TMP will suppress production of
certain inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and lipids from macrophages following
stimulation with LPS or infection with H1N1 influenza virus. In this study our
goal was to elucidate the mechanism underlying TMP-mediated suppression of
cytokine and chemokine production. We focused our investigations on the response
to LPS and the NF-?B protein RelA, a transcription factor whose activity is
critical to LPS-responsiveness. METHODS: Reporter assays were performed with
HEK293 cells overexpressing either TLR-3, -4, or -8 and a plasmid containing the
luciferase gene under control of an NF-?B response element. Cells were then
treated with LPS, poly(I:C), or resiquimod, and/or TMP, and lysates measured for
luciferase activity.RAW 264.7 cells treated with LPS and/or TMP were used in ChIP
and EMSA assays. For ChIP assays, chromatin was prepared and complexes
precipitated with anti-NF-?B RelA Ab. Cross-links were reversed, DNA purified,
and sequence abundance determined by Q-PCR. For EMSA assays, nuclear extracts
were incubated with radiolabeled probes, analyzed by non-denaturing PAGE and
visualized by autoradiography.RAW 264.7 cells treated with LPS and/or TMP were
also used in fluorescence microscopy and western blot experiments. Translocation
experiments were performed using a primary Ab to NF-?B RelA and a
fluorescein-conjugated secondary Ab. Western blots were performed using Abs to
I?B-? and phospho-I?B-?. Bands were visualized by chemiluminescence. RESULTS: In
reporter assays with TLR-3, -4, and -8 over-expressing cells, TMP caused strong
inhibition of NF-?B-dependent transcription.ChIP assays showed TMP caused
virtually complete inhibition of RelA binding in vivo to promoters for the genes
for TNF-?, MCP-1/CCL2, and RANTES/CCL5 although the LPS-dependent synthesis of
I?B-? was not inhibited. EMSA assays did not reveal an effect of TMP on the
binding of RelA to naked DNA templates in vitro.TMP did not inhibit the nuclear
translocation of NF-?B RelA nor the phosphorylation of I?B-?. CONCLUSION: TMP
acts indirectly as an inhibitor of NF-?B-dependent transcription by preventing
RelA from binding the promoters of certain key cytokine and chemokine genes.
