Abstract

AbstractInterleukin-11 (IL-11) is a member of the interleukin-6 (IL-6) family of cytokines. IL-11 is a regulator of multiple events in hematopoiesis, and IL-11-mediated signaling is implicated in inflammatory disease, cancer, and fibrosis. All IL-6 family cytokines signal through the signal-transducing receptor, glycoprotein 130 (gp130), but these cytokines have distinct as well as overlapping biological functions. To understand IL-11 signaling at the molecular level, we performed a comprehensive interaction analysis of the IL-11 signaling complex, comparing it with the IL-6 complex, one of the best-characterized cytokine complexes. Our thermodynamic analysis revealed a clear difference between IL-11 and IL-6. Surface plasmon resonance analysis showed that the interaction between IL-11 and IL-11 receptor α (IL-11Rα) is entropy driven, whereas that between IL-6 and IL-6 receptor α (IL-6Rα) is enthalpy driven. Our analysis using isothermal titration calorimetry revealed that the binding of gp130 to the IL-11/IL-11Rα complex results in entropy loss, but that the interaction of gp130 with the IL-6/IL-6Rα complex results in entropy gain. Our hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry experiments suggested that the D2 domain of gp130 was not involved in n IL-6-like interactions in the IL-11/IL-11Rα complex. It has been reported that IL-6 interaction with gp130 in the signaling complex was characterized through the hydrophobic interface located in its D2 domain of gp130. Our findings suggest that unique interactions of the IL-11 signaling complex with gp130 are responsible for the distinct biological activities of IL-11 compared to IL-6.
