The CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteins (C/EBPs), particularly C/EBPβ and C/EBPδ, are known to participate in the regulation of many genes associated with inflammation. However, very little is known regarding the activation and functions of C/EBPβ and C/EBPδ in acute lung inflammation and injury. Here we show that both C/EBPβ and C/EBPδ activation are triggered in lungs and in alveolar macrophages following intrapulmonary deposition of IgG immune complexes. We further show that mice carrying a targeted deletion of the C/EBPβ gene displayed significant attenuation of the permeability index (lung vascular leak of albumin), lung neutrophil accumulation (MPO activity), total number of white blood cells, and neutrophils in bronchial alveolar lavage (BAL) fluids compared to wild-type mice. Moreover, the mutant mice expressed considerably less TNF-α, IL-6, and CXC/CC chemokine and sICAM-1 proteins in BAL fluids, and corresponding mRNAs in the IgG immune complex-injured lung, compared to wild-type mice. These phenotypes were associated with a significant reduction in morphological lung injury. In contrast, C/EBPδ deficiency had no effect on IgG immune complex-induced lung injury. IgG immune complex-stimulated C/EBPβ-deficient alveolar macrophages released significantly less TNF-α, IL-6, macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-2, keratinocyte cell-derived chemokine (KC), and MIP-1α compared to wild-type cells. Similar decreases in IgG immune complex-induced inflammatory mediator production were observed following siRNA ablation of C/EBPβ in a murine alveolar macrophage cell line. These findings implicate C/EBPβ as a critical regulator of IgG immune complex-induced inflammatory responses and injury in the lung.
