Macrophage/microglial Ezh2 facilitates autoimmune inflammation through inhibition of Socs3

Abstract: H3K27me3 is known to silence gene expression. Zhang et al. reveal that, rather than functioning as a repressor, Ezh2 or H3K27me3 specifically mediates toll-like receptor (TLR)-induced proinflammatory responses in macrophages/microglia, in which Ezh2 directly targets Socs3, consequently mediates TLR-induced NF-κB activation, and facilitates autoimmune inflammation.

“…GSEA results implicate the NF-κB pathway as the most affected signaling pathway, with more than 150 NF-κB target genes upregulated in Socs3-deficient neutrophils in response to G-CSF compared with Socs3 fl/fl mice. Previous studies have suggested that Socs3 negatively regulates the NF-κB pathway in macrophages (80), and our data suggest that Socs3 may also negatively regulate the NF-κB pathway in neutrophils. The RNA-Seq data also demonstrate that the STAT5 pathway, which GM-CSF activates, is enhanced in Socs3-deficient neutrophils after an 8-hour stimulation with G-CSF.…”

“…Whereas, removal of this histone mark is mediated by the H3K27me3 demethylases KDM6A and KDM6B. Zhang et al reported the critical role of the EZH2 histone methyltransferase modification in altering macrophage phenotype (203). EZH2 controls H3K27me3 deposition on the promoter of SOCS3, that encodes a cytokine signaling repressor.…”

“…5 In certain contexts, EZH2 is implicated as a negative regulator of innate immune signaling associated with viral sensing in part through inhibition of RIG-I or with degradation of TRAF6. 45,46 KDM6B regulates several transcription factors of the innate immune response, and its expression is increased by NF-kB in response to microbial stimuli. 47 In MDS patients, KDM6B mediates transcription of multiple genes involved in NF-kB activation, suggesting that KDM6B is a feedforward activation node of innate immune signaling in HSPCs.…”
