Bacterial DNA and related synthetic immunostimulatory oligodeoxyribonucleotides (ISS-ODN) stimulate innate immunity. However, the molecular recognition mechanism that initiates signaling in response to bacterial DNA and ISS-ODN has not been identified. Herein, we demonstrate that administration of bacterial DNA and ISS-ODN to mice lacking the catalytic subunit of DNA-PK (DNA-PKcs) and in vitro stimulation of BMDM from these mice result in defective induction of IL-6 and IL-12. Further analysis using BMDM of IKKbeta(-/-) revealed that both DNA-PKcs and IKKbeta are essential for normal cytokine production in response to ISS-ODN or bacterial DNA. ISS-ODN and bacterial DNA activate DNA-PK, which in turn contributes to activation of IKK and NF-kappaB. These results reveal a novel role of DNA-PKcs in innate immune responses and a link between DNA repair and innate immunity.
