Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is associated with excessive inflammatory response, however, the pathophysiology of inflammation is poorly understood. The retinoid-related orphan receptor alpha (ROR alpha) is a key inflammatory regulator, but the mechanisms underlying its role remain unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate how ROR alpha was involved in the regulation of inflammatory response. Here we put forward a hypothesis that ROR alpha might negatively regulate inflammatory response by controlling silent information regulator Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) expression. Stimulation of macrophages in vitro with LPS and LPS administration in vivo were used to explore the function of ROR alpha and the relationship between ROR alpha and SIRT1. We found that the level of ROR alpha was suppressed in macrophages stimulated with LPS and overexpression or knockdown of ROR alpha by transfection with lentivirus or siRNAs significantly decreased or increased, respectively, the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1 beta, TNF, IL-6 and MCP-1. Importantly, overexpression of ROR alpha suppressed inflammation and alleviated LPS-induced organ injury in vivo. Further study showed that ROR alpha could regulate SIRT1 expression and, consequently, affect deacetyation and nuclear translocation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) subunit p65. Moreover, the activation of SIRT1 by its specific agonist, SR1720, could reduce the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in ROR alpha knockdown macrophages stimulated with LPS. In conclusion, we demonstrated that ROR alpha could alleviate LPS-induced inflammation and organ injury both in vivo and in vitro by blocking NF-kappa B p65 nuclear translocation and restricting acetylation of NF-kappa B p65 at lysine 310 via the regulation of SIRT1 expression. Targeting ROR alpha might be a promising therapeutic strategy to regulate inflammatory disorders.
