SOCS-1 ameliorates smoke inhalation-induced acute lung injury through inhibition of ASK-1 activity and DISC formation
Smoke inhalation leads to acute lung injury (ALI), a devastating clinical problem associated with high mortality. Suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS-1) is a negative regulator of apoptosis and pro-inflammatory cytokine signaling, two major contributors to the pathogenesis of ALI. We have found...

Summary: | Smoke inhalation leads to acute lung injury (ALI), a devastating clinical problem associated with high mortality. Suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS-1) is a negative regulator of apoptosis and pro-inflammatory cytokine signaling, two major contributors to the pathogenesis of ALI. We have found that SOCS-1 protects lung epithelial cells from smoke-induced apoptosis through two mechanisms. One is that SOCS-1 enhances degradation of ASK-1 and diminishes cleavage of pro-caspase-3 to repress smoke-triggered apoptosis in lung epithelial cells. The other is that SOCS-1 represses smoke-triggered DISC formation through altering TRADD-caspase-8 interaction rather than TNFR-1-TRADD interaction or TNFR-1-TRAF-2 interaction. In conclusion, SOCS-1 relieves smoke inhalation-induced lung injury by repressing ASK-1 and DISC-mediated epithelium apoptosis.
•SOCS-1 protects epithelium cellular viability, enhances ASK-1 degradation, diminishes pro-caspase-3 cleavage and represses DISC formation. |
