IL-1β is a key cytokine linked to the pathogenesis of acute arthritis. Caspase-1, neutrophil elastase, and chymase all process pro-IL-1β to its biologically active form. The potential contributions of these proteases were examined. Caspase-1 (Casp1−/−) deficient and wild type (WT) mice were tested for their response to K/BxN arthritogenic serum transfer and monosodium urate (MSU) crystal induced peritonitis while prophylactically treated with elastase or chymase inhibitors. Arthritic paws were tested for presence of IL-1β protein by ELISA and Western blot. Neutrophils and mast cells from WT and mutant mice were tested for their ability to secrete IL-1β after in vitro stimulation in the presence of protease inhibitors. Casp1−/− and WT mice developed paw swelling to the same extent in the K/BxN serum transfer arthritis model. MSU crystal injection into Casp1−/− mice also resulted in neutrophil influx and measurable peritoneal IL-1β protein. Both of these responses were attenuated with neutrophil elastase inhibitors. K/BxN serum induced arthritis was also reduced by treatment with a chymase inhibitor. Casp1−/− neutrophils and mast cells secreted similar amounts of IL-1β protein upon in vitro stimulation with LPS, albeit at lower levels than WT cells when Casp1−/− neutrophils were exposed to MSU crystals. Elastase and chymase inhibitors reduced IL-1β released by these cells. The production of IL-1β by neutrophils and mast cells is not exclusively dependent on caspase-1 and other proteases can compensate for loss of caspase-1 in vivo. These pathways might therefore compromise the caspase-1 targeted therapies in neutrophil-predominant arthritis.
