Peptidoglycan (PGN) is detected in inflammatory cell-rich regions of human atheromatous plaques. The present study investigated the effects of PGN on CC chemokine ligand 3 (CCL3) expression, which is elevated in the atherosclerotic arteries, and determined cellular factors involved in PGN-mediated CCL3 up-regulation in mononuclear cells, with the goal of understanding the molecular mechanisms of inflammatory responses to bacterial pathogen-associated molecular patterns in diseased arteries. Exposure of human monocytic leukemia THP-1 cells to PGN resulted in enhanced secretion of CCL3 and profound induction of the CCL3 gene transcript. Both events were abrogated by oxidized 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonosyl-sn-phosphatidylcholine, an inhibitor of Toll-like receptors 2/4. Pharmacological inhibitors such as U0126, SP6001250, Akt inhibitor IV, rapamycin, RO318220, diphenyleneiodonium chloride, and N-acetylcysteine also significantly attenuated PGN-mediated CCL3 up-regulation. However, polymyxin B, LY294002, and SB202190 did not influence CCL3 expression. We propose that PGN contributes to enhanced CCL3 expression in atherosclerotic plaques and that Toll-like receptors (TLR2), Akt, mTOR, mitogen-activated protein kinase, and reactive oxygen species are involved in that process.
