Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) are important pro-inflammatory cytokines involved in the mediation of the immune response, inflammation, tissue repair, and tumor progression. Regulation of IL-1 and TNF expression is mediated at the level of transcription by the transcription factor NF kappa B. Inhibition of NF kappa B activity by the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib (BZ) has been used as a frontline therapy in multiple myeloma and other hematological malignancies. In this chapter, we describe a protocol that uses chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) to analyze the NF kappa B recruitment to endogenous IL-1 and TNF promoters in BZ-treated human macrophages. Corresponding to the BZ-suppressed mRNA levels of IL-1 and TNF, we show that BZ inhibits p65 NF kappa B recruitment to IL-1 and TNF promoters. This study specifically uses U937 macrophages, but the protocol could be easily modified to analyze the regulation of NF kappa B recruitment in other cell types.
