Abstract
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-interacting kinase (MNK) plays a role in promoting the production of tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin-6 in macrophages during Vibrio vulnificus (Vv) infection. Inhibition or knockout of MNK1 in J774A.1 cells resulted in reduced cytokine production without affecting their transcription levels. MNK1 also impairs phagocytosis, bacterial clearance, and phagosome acidification in Vv-infected cells through the MNK1-mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling pathway. The findings highlight the importance of the MNK1-mTORC1 pathway in modulating macrophage responses to Vv infection.
