The Role of 3' Poly(A) Tail Metabolism in Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha Regulation

(Received for publication, April 11, 1997)

Eric K. Crawford , Jeffery E. Ensor , Indira Kalvakolanu and Jeffrey D. Hasday

From the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Departments of Medicine and Pathology, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland 21201, Medical Service, Baltimore Veterans Administration Medical Center, Baltimore, Maryland 21201, and the University of Maryland at Baltimore Cytokine Core Laboratory, Baltimore, Maryland 21201

In unstimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage-like cells, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha ) mRNA was transcribed and accumulated in the cytoplasm, but the TNF-alpha transcripts failed to associate with polysomes, and TNF-alpha protein was not detected. Stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced an increase in TNF-alpha transcription, cytoplasmic TNF-alpha mRNA accumulation, polysome association, and secretion of TNF-alpha protein. This process was associated with a 200-nucleotide increase in the apparent length of the TNF-alpha mRNA. The difference in TNF-alpha mRNA size was caused by marked truncation of the 3' poly(A) tail in unstimulated cells. Fully adenylated TNF-alpha mRNA appeared within 15 min of LPS stimulation. We speculate that removal of the poly(A) tail blocks initiation of TNF-alpha translation in unstimulated macrophages. LPS inactivates this process, allowing synthesis of translatable polyadenylated TNF-alpha mRNA.
