Description Vibrio cholerae, a noninvasive enteric bacterium, causing inflammatory diarrheal disease cholera, is associated with the secretion of
proinflamammatory cytokines including IL-1b in cultured epithelial cells. Incubation of Int407 with live V. cholerae resulted in increased
IL-1b mRNA expression as early as 2 h of infection, reached a peak at �3.5 h and decreased thereafter. The identity of the effector
molecule(s) is largely unknown. The bacterial culture supernatant showed IL-1b stimulating activity. An engineered aflagellate
V. cholerae flaA mutant (O395FLAN) resulted in highly reduced level of IL-1b expression in Int407. The crude flagellar protein of
V. cholerae as well as recombinant FlaA induced IL-1b expression in Int407. Infection of Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) transfected HeLa
cells with O395FLAN showed reduced expression of IL-1b compared to wild-type. Unlike wild-type V. cholerae, O395FLAN did not
activate the NF-kB while the recombinant flagellin could activate NF-kB. Finally, the mitogen activated protein kinases (ERK1 and 2,
p38) were phosphorylated in wild-type and recombinant flagellin treated Int407 cells and inhibition of the p38 and ERK pathways
significantly decreased the IL-1b response induced by wild-type V. cholerae as well as recombinant flagellin. Our data clearly indicate that
flagellin of V. cholerae could induce IL-1b expression by recognizing TLR5 that activate NF-kB and MAP kinase in Int407.
