Abstract Cytokines are key regulators of adequate immune responses to infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We demonstrate that the p110δ catalytic subunit of PI3K acts as a downstream effector of the TLR family member RP105 (CD180) in promoting mycobacteria-induced cytokine production by macrophages. Our data show that the significantly reduced release of TNF and IL-6 by RP105−/− macrophages during mycobacterial infection was not accompanied by diminished mRNA or protein expression. Mycobacteria induced comparable activation of NF-κB and p38 MAPK signaling in wild-type (WT) and RP105−/− macrophages. In contrast, mycobacteria-induced phosphorylation of Akt was abrogated in RP105−/− macrophages. The p110δ-specific inhibitor, Cal-101, and small interfering RNA–mediated knockdown of p110δ diminished mycobacteria-induced TNF secretion by WT but not RP105−/− macrophages. Such interference with p110δ activity led to reduced surface-expressed TNF in WT but not RP105−/− macrophages, while leaving TNF mRNA and protein expression unaffected. Activity of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase was required for RP105-mediated activation of Akt phosphorylation and TNF release by mycobacteria-infected macrophages. These data unveil a novel innate immune signaling axis that orchestrates key cytokine responses of macrophages and provide molecular insight into the functions of RP105 as an innate immune receptor for mycobacteria.
