Dose-dependent phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate mediated monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation induces unique proteomic signatures in THP1 cells

ABSTRACT: Macrophages are sentinels of the immune system and THP1 monocytic cells are one of the widely used models to study immune responses in macrophages. Several monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation protocols exist with phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) being widely used and accepted. However, the concentrations and durations of PMA treatment to induce differentiation varies widely in published literature. In this study, we determined the proteome expression dynamics of THP1 macrophages differentiated from monocytes by three commonly used PMA-based differentiation protocols using dimethyl labeling-based quantitative proteomics analysis. Our analysis shows that variations in PMA concentration and varying periods of rest post-stimulation result in downstream differences in proteome expression and cellular processes. We demonstrate that these differences result in altered expression of cytokines upon stimulation with different TLR ligands. Together, these findings provide a valuable resource that significantly expands the knowledge of protein expression dynamics in in vitro models of macrophages which in turn has profound impact on the immune responses being studied.

Macrophages are sentinels of the innate immune system, and the human monocytic cell line THP-1 is one of the widely used <i>in vitro</i> models to study inflammatory processes and immune responses. Several monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation protocols exist, with phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) being the most commonly used and accepted method. However, the concentrations and duration of PMA treatment vary widely in the published literature and could affect the probed phenotype, however ...[more]

Project description:Microvesicles (MV) are small membrane-bound particles comprised of exosomes and various sized extracellular vesicles. These are released by a number of cell types. Microvesicles have a variety of cellular functions from communication to mediating growth and differentiation. Microvesicles contain proteins and nucleic acids. Previously, we showed that plasma microvesicles contain microRNAs (miRNAs). Based on our previous report, the majority of peripheral blood microvesicles are derived from platelets while mononuclear phagocytes, including macrophages, are the second most abundant population. Here, we characterized macrophage-derived microvesicles and whether they influenced the differentiation of naM-CM-/ve monocytes. We also identified the miRNA content of the macrophage-derived microvesicles. We found that RNA molecules contained in the macrophage-derived microvesicles were transported to target cells, including monocytes, endothelial cells, epithelial cells and fibroblasts. Furthermore, we found that miR-223 was transported to target cells and was functionally active. Based on our observations, we hypothesize that microvesicles bind to and activate target cells. Furthermore, we find that microvesicles induce the differentiation of macrophages. Thus, defining key components of this response may identify novel targets to regulate host defense and inflammation. We used GeneChip microarrays to examine changes in gene expression induced by MV in primary monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) and in THP1 cells, and compare this to cells treated with GM-CSF and PMA, respectively. All experiments were done in triplicates. Primary monocytes were collected from buffy coats (BC). The freshly isolated monocytes from three donors (Mono1-3) were either treated with GM-CSF or subjected to RNA isolation. Following treatment, MVs were isolated from the GM-CSF-treated macrophage cultures. RNA was isolated from the remaining cells for profiling (GM1-3). The isolated MVs were then used to treat new BC monocytes for 24 h (BC-GMCSF-MV24). A fraction of the new BC monocytes was subjected to RNA extraction for profiling (BC1-3). For THP1 cells, they were treated with either DMSO or PMA to produce MVs. The MVs were collected and the remaining cells lyzed for RNA extraction and profiling (DMSO1-3 and PMA1-3). The collected MVs from the DMSO or PMA-treated THP1 cells were incubated with new THP1 for 24 h and designated DMSO-MV24 or PMA-MV24. We had a total of 24 samples.
