Bacterial CpG-containing (CpG) DNA promotes survival of murine macrophages and triggers production of proinflammatory mediators. The CpG DNA-induced inflammatory response is mediated via TLR9, whereas a recent study reported that activation of the Akt prosurvival pathway occurs via DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) and independently of TLR9. We show, in this study, that Akt activation and survival of murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM) triggered by CpG-containing phosphodiester oligodeoxynucleotides or CpG-containing phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotides was completely dependent on TLR9. In addition, survival triggered by CpG-containing phosphodiester oligodeoxynucleotides was not compromised in BMM from SCID mice that express a catalytically inactive form of DNA-PK. CpG DNA-induced survival of BMM was inhibited by the PI3K inhibitor, LY294002, but not by the MEK1/2 inhibitor, PD98059. The effect of LY294002 was specific to survival, because treatment of BMM with LY294002 affected CpG DNA-induced TNF-alpha production only modestly. Therefore, CpG DNA activates macrophage survival via TLR9 and the PI3K-Akt pathway and independently of DNA-PK and MEK-ERK.
