Bacterial flagellin is critical to mediate NLRC4 inflammasome-dependent caspase-1 activation. However, Shigella flexneri, a non-flagellated bacterium, and a flagellin (fliC) knockout strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) are known to activate NLRC4 in bone marrow-derived macrophages. Furthermore, the fliC knockout strain of Pa was used in a mouse model of peritonitis to show the requirement of NLRC4. In a model of pulmonary Pa infection, flagellin was shown to be essential for the induction of NLRC4-dependent caspase-1 activation. Moreover, in all Pa studies, IL-1β production was attenuated in NLRC4−/− mice; however, the role of IL-1β in NLRC4-mediated innate immunity in the lungs against a non-flagellated bacterium was not explored. Here, we report that NLRC4 is important for host survival and bacterial clearance as well as neutrophil-mediated inflammation in the lungs following Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) infection. NLRC4 is essential for Kp-induced production of IL-1β, IL-17A, and neutrophil chemoattractants (KC, MIP-2, and LIX) in the lungs. NLRC4 signaling in hematopoietic cells contributes to Kp-induced lung inflammation. Furthermore, exogenous IL-1β, but not IL-18 or IL-17A, partially rescued survival, neutrophil accumulation and cytokine/chemokine expression in the lungs of NLRC4−/− mice following infectious challenge. Furthermore, IL-1R1−/− mice displayed a decrease in neutrophilic inflammation in the lungs after infection. Taken together, these findings provide novel insights into the role of NLRC4 in Kp-induced host defense.
