The involvement of retinoblastoma protein-interacting zinc finger 1 (RIZ1), a tumor suppressor, in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory responses was investigated by using RAW 264.7 macrophage-like cells. LPS significantly augmented the expression of RIZ1 and the augmentation was mediated by the activation of nuclear factor (NF)-κB and Akt. The silencing of RIZ1 with the siRNA led to the inactivation of NF-κB in response to LPS. Moreover, the RIZ1 silencing caused the down-regulation of p53 activation and a p53 pharmacological inhibitor attenuated the RIZ1 expression. LPS-induced tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 production was prevented by RIZ1 siRNA or a p53 pharmacological inhibitor. Therefore, RIZ1 was suggested to augment LPS-induced NF-κB activation in collaboration with p53 and enhance the production of proinflammatory cytokines in response to LPS.
