The NOD-like receptors (NLRs) have been shown to be involved in infection and autoinflammatory disease. Previously, we identified a zebrafish NLR, nlrc3-like, required for macrophage homeostasis in the brain under physiological conditions. Here, we found that a deficiency of nlrc3-like leads to decreased bacterial burden at a very early stage of Mycobacterium marinum infection, along with increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as il-1β and tnf-α. Interestingly, myeloid-lineage specific overexpression of nlrc3-like achieved the opposite effects, suggesting that the impact of nlrc3-like on the host anti-mycobacterial response is mainly due to its expression in the innate immune system. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and subsequent gene expression analysis demonstrated that inflammasome activation-related genes were upregulated in the infected macrophages of nlrc3-like deficient embryos. By disrupting asc, encoding apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD, a key component for inflammasome activation, the bacterial burden increased in asc and nlrc3-like double deficient embryos compared with nlrc3-like single deficient embryos, implying the involvement of inflammasome activation in infection control. We also found extensive neutrophil infiltration in the nlrc3-like deficient larvae during infection, which was associated with comparable bacterial burden but increased tissue damage and death at a later stage that could be alleviated by administration of dexamethasone. Our findings uncovered an important role of nlrc3-like in the negative regulation of macrophage inflammasome activation and neutrophil infiltration during mycobacterial infection. This highlights the importance of a balanced innate immune response during mycobacterial infection and provides a potential molecular basis to explain how anti-inflammatory drugs can improve treatment outcomes in TB patients whose infection is accompanied by a hyperinflammatory response.
