Tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) are severely compromised for the induction of proinflammatory mediators following toll-like receptor (TLR) activation. Here, we reported that the defective TLR response in TAM was due to the malfunctioning of the myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 (MyD88)-dependent signaling cascade in concert with downregulation of tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor (TRAF) 6 and interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK) 1. However, the expression of toll-interleukin1 receptor domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon beta (TRIF) and TRAF 3, which act via the TRIF-dependent pathway of TLR signaling, were found to be unaffected in TAM. Although, TRIF-mediated signal inducers, lipopolysaccharide or poly (I:C), induced high level of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)-1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation, but they were failed to induce significant p38MAPK phosphorylation in TAM. Consequently, ERK-1/2-dependent histone phosphorylation at the IL-10 promoter elicited enhanced interleukin (IL)-10 production by TAM. Whereas, the lack of transcription favorable histone phosphorylation at the IL-12 promoter was accompanied with a very low amount of IL-12 expression in TAM. Moreover, ERK-1/2 MAPK activation resulted in enhanced IRAK M induction in TAM, a specific inhibitor of MyD88 pathway. Therefore, for the first time, we decipher an unexplored TLR signaling in TAM where ERK-1/2 activation in a MyD88-independent pathway results in transcription favorable histone modification at the IL-10 promoter region to enhance IL-10-mediated immunosuppression. Additionally, by enhancing IRAK M induction, it also polarizes TAM toward a more immunosuppressive form.
