Lung fibroblasts play an important role in subepithelial fibrosis, one feature for airway remodeling. IL-1 receptor-associated kinase (IRAK)-M was shown to involve fibrosis formation in airways and lung through regulation of inflammatory responses. IRAK-M is expressed by lung fibroblasts, whether IRAK-M has direct impact on lung fibroblasts remains unclear. In this investigation, we evaluated in vitro effect of IRAK-M on phenotypes of lung fibroblasts by silencing or overexpressing IRAK-M. Murine lung fibroblasts (MLg) were stimulated with house dust mite (HDM), IL-33, and transforming growth factor (TGF) β1. Techniques of small interfering RNA or expression plasmid were employed to silence or overexpress IRAK-M in MLg fibroblast cells. Proliferation, migration, invasiveness, and fibrosis-related events were evaluated. Significant upregulation of IRAK-M expression in MLg cells was caused by these stimuli. Silencing IRAK-M significantly increased proliferation, migration, and invasiveness of lung fibroblasts regardless of stimulating conditions. By contrast, IRAK-M overexpression significantly inhibited proliferation and motility of MLg lung fibroblasts. IRAK-M overexpression also significantly decreased the expression of fibronectin, collagen I, and α-SMA in MLg cells. Under stimulation with TGFβ1 or IL-33, IRAK-M silencing reduced MMP9 production, while IRAK-M overexpression increased MMP9 production. Modulation of IRAK-M expression affected cytokines production, either decreased or increased expression of TNFα and CXCL10 by the cells regardless of stimulation. Our in vitro data reveal that IRAK-M directly impacts on lung fibroblasts through modulation of cellular motility, release of inflammatory, and fibrotic cytokines of lung fibroblasts. These might suggest a new target by regulation of IRAK-M in slowing airway remodeling.
