Project description:In response to microenvironmental signals macrophages undergo different activation, indicated as classic/M1 and alternative/M2 polarization. C-Myc transcription factor could be an essential player in M2 polarization. Functional relevance of c-Myc in M2 macrophage biology is investigated by evaluating the effect of 100-58F4, on the transcriptional profile induced on human macrophages by IL-4. Human monocytes were obtained from normal donor buffy coats by two-step gradient centrifugation using Ficoll (Biochrom) and Percoll (Amersham). Non-adherent cells were discarded, and the purified monocytes were incubated for 7 days in RPMI 1640 (Biochom) supplemented with 10% FCS (HyClone) and 100 ng/mL M-CSF to obtain resting macrophages. Macrophage polarization was obtained by removing the culture medium and culturing cells in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% FCS and 100 ng/mL LPS plus 20 ng/mL IFN-gamma (M1 polarization) or 20 ng/mL IL-4 (M2 polarization) for 24 h. When needed, chemical inhibitors were added with IL-4.

Project description:Gene regulatory networks (GRNs) provide a powerful framework for studying cellular differentiation. However, it is less clear how GRNs encode cellular responses to everyday microenvironmental cues. Macrophages can be polarized and potentially repolarized based on environmental signaling. In order to identify the GRNs that drive macrophage polarization and the heterogeneous single-cell subpopulations that are present in the process, we used a high-resolution time course of bulk and single-cell RNA-seq and ATAC-seq assays of HL-60-derived macrophages polarized towards M1 or M2 over 24 hours. We identified transient M1 and M2 markers, including the main transcription factors that underlie polarization, and subpopulations of naive, transitional, and terminally polarized macrophages. We built bulk and single-cell polarization GRNs to compare the recovered interactions and found that each technology recovered only a subset of known interactions. Our data provide a resource to study the GRN of cellular maturation in response to microenvironmental stimuli in a variety of contexts in homeostasis and disease.

Project description:The model describes the mechanisms by which macrophages differentiate into a given phenotype. The model shows that both extracellular and intracellular signalling are both important for that process. More specifically, STAT1 activity favors macrophages polarization towards M1 phenotype and STAT6 activity favors macrophage polarization towards M2 phenotype. However, these polarizations are can be reversed by molecular signalling.

Project description:Portal hypertension combined with hypersplenism (PHcH) is the main cause of hypocytosis and esophagogastric variceal hemorrhage in patients with liver cirrhosis. Activated macrophages that destroy excess blood cells are the main cause of hypersplenism, but the activating pathway is not very clear. This study aims to investigate the activation types of splenic macrophages and their activation mechanisms, to provide experimental evidence for the biological treatment of splenomegaly, and aiming to find a strategy to improve liver fibrosis and inflammation by intervening in splenic immune cells. This study revealed the occurrence of M2 type polarization of macrophages and upregulation of c-Myc gene expression in the PH spleen. RNAseq, protein chip, western blot, and chip-seq were performed on macrophages and the in vitro MEK inhibitor rafametinib was used. Carbon tetrachloride and thioacetamide induced mouse cirrhosis models were separately constructed. c-Myc gene knockout in splenic macrophages reduced M2 type polarization and exacerbated liver fibrosis inflammation. c-Myc activated the MAPK signaling pathway and upregulated the expression of IL-4 and M2 related genes in PH hypersplenism through the MEK-ERK-c-Myc axis. In addition, the c-Myc gene exerted anti-inflammatory effects by upregulating IL-4-mediated signal transduction to promote M2 type differentiation and anti-inflammatory cytokine secretion. Therefore, the induction of macrophage depolarization might represent a new therapeutic approach in the cure of PH hypersplenism, making c-Myc a potential candidate for macrophage polarization therapy.

Project description:Macrophages perform key and distinct functions in maintaining tissue homeostasis through finely tuning their polarization state.Here, we found that tumor necrosis factor-α-induced protein 8-like 1 (TIPE1) was highly expressed in macrophages and Tipe1 depletion impeded M2 polarization of macrophages. The goals of this study are to compare BMDMs from LyzM-Cre; Tipe1f/f or Tipe1f/f mice to have a further view of the potential difference.

Project description:Macrophages polarize towards different subpopulations with distinct and partly antagonistic functions in various diseases. IFNγ/LPS-polarized M1-type macrophages can have antiangiogenic activity, whereas IL-4-induced M2-type macrophages can be proangiogenic and profibrotic. Therapeutic strategies to inhibit M2-type polarization while promoting M1-type polarization could serve to inhibit pathological angiogenesis and fibrosis. Here, by combining global quantitative time-course proteomics and phosphoproteomics with a small-molecule inhibitor screen we identify signaling events that promote specifically IL-4-induced and not IFNγ/LPS-induced macrophage polarization and found that the MEK inhibitor trametinib and the HDAC inhibitor panobinostat potently prevent M2-type macrophage polarization without inhibiting M1-type polarization. In contrast, selective B-Raf inhibition promotes M2-type polarization. Trametinib and panobinostat also blocked M2-type macrophage polarization and concomitantly angiogenesis and fibrosis in models of wound healing and neovascular age-related macular degeneration in vivo. Thus, these pharmacologic inhibitors could be utilized therapeutically to selectively block IL4-induced macrophage polarization and reduce pathologic angiogenesis and fibrosis.

Project description:Skeletal muscle aging is a major causative factor for disability and frailty in the elderly. Recent theories about the origins of the progressive impairment of skeletal muscle with aging emphasize a disequilibrium between damage and repair. Macrophages participate in muscle tissue repair first as pro-inflammatory M1 subtype and then as M2 anti-inflammatory subtype. However, information on macrophage presence in skeletal muscle is still sporadic and the effect of aging on different phenotypes remains unknown. In this study, we sought to characterize the polarization status of macrophages human skeletal muscle at different ages. We found that most macrophages in human skeletal muscle are M2, and that this number increased with advancing age. On the contrary, M1 macrophages decline with aging, making the total number of macrophages invariant with older age. Notably, M2 macrophages co-localized with increasing intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) in aging skeletal muscle. The mouse strain BALB/c, intrinsically M2-prone, showed increased IMAT and regenerating myofibers in skeletal muscle, accompanied by elevated expression of adipocyte markers and M2 cytokines. Collectively, we report that polarization of macrophages to the major M2 subtype is associated with IMAT, and propose that increased M2 in aged skeletal muscle may reflect active repair of aging-associated muscle damage.

Project description:Macrophages polarize to divergent functional phenotypes depending on their microenvironment in a highly coordinated process of metabolic and transcriptional rewiring that is still poorly understood. We developed an Integrated Metabolomics and Gene Expression (IMAGE) profiling and analysis pipeline and applied it to extensively characterize global metabolic programs of macrophage polarization. IMAGE analysis identified 7 major (novel and known) regulatory modules responsible for metabolic rewiring during polarization, which we validated through extensive carbon and nitrogen labeling experiments. M1-specific modules included: inflammatory variant of the aspartate-arginosuccinate shunt; TCA cycle break at Idh expression accompanied by citrate accumulation and production of itaconate and fatty acid synthesis. In M2 macrophages we discovered significant role of glutamine in polarization, providing nitrogen for UDP-GlcNAc synthesis. Consistently, glutamine deprivation results in significant M2-specific defect in polarization. Our data provide, for the first time, a global view of the integrated transcriptional and metabolic changes that result in M1 and M2 polarization. Bone-marrow derived macrophages were generated from C57BL/6 mice were plated at ~100k cells per well in 96-well plate and stimulated with either Il4 or combination of LPS&IFNg or left unstimulated for 24 h mRNA was derived from lysates using Invitrogen oligo-dT beads
