Liver inflammation and injury are mediated by the innate immune response, which is regulated by Toll-like receptors (TLR). Activation of TLR9 induces Type I interferons (IFNs) via the interferon regulatory factor (IRF)-7. We investigated the roles of Type I IFNs in TLR9-associated liver injury in mice. Liver injury was induced in wild-type (WT), IRF7-deficient, and IFN-α/s receptor-1 (IFNAR1)-deficient mice by administration of ligands for TLR9 or TLR2. Findings from mice were verified in cultured hepatocytes and liver mononuclear cells, and in vivo experiments using recombinant Type-I IFN and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra). Type I IFNs were upregulated during TLR9-associated liver injury in WT mice. IRF7- and IFNAR1-deficient mice, which have disruptions in Type I IFN production or signaling, respectively, had greater amounts of liver damage and inflammation, decreased recruitment of dendritic cells, and increased production of TNF-α by liver mononuclear cells (LMNC). These findings indicate that Type I IFNs have anti-inflammatory activities in liver. The IL-1ra, which is produced by LMNC and hepatocytes, is an IFN-regulated antagonist of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β; IRF7- and IFNAR1-deficient mice had decreased levels of IL-1ra, compared with WT mice. IL-1ra protected cultured hepatocytes from IL-1β-mediated sensitization to cytotoxicity from TNF-α. In vivo exposure to Type I IFN, which induced IL-1ra, or administration of IL-1ra reduced TLR9-associated liver injury; the protective effect of Type-I IFNs therefore appears to be mediated by IFN-dependent induction of IL-1ra. Type I IFNs have anti-inflammatory effects mediated by endogenous IL-1ra which regulates the extent of TLR9-induced liver damage. Type I interferon signaling is therefore required for protection from immune-mediated liver injury.
