PG - 1863-72 LID - 10.1093/carcin/bgq088 [doi] AB - Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) constitute major infiltrates of solid tumors and express a marker profile that characterizes alternatively activated macrophages (Mcapital EF, Cyrillics). TAMs accumulate in hypoxic tumor regions, express high amounts of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) and contribute to tumor angiogenesis and invasiveness. However, the precise role of HIF-1 on Mcapital EF, Cyrillic infiltration and phenotype alterations remains poorly defined. Therefore, we cocultured wild type (wt) versus HIF-1alpha(-/-) Mcapital EF, Cyrillics with tumor spheroids. Both, wt and HIF-1alpha(-/-) Mcapital EF, Cyrillics, infiltrated hypoxic regions of tumor spheroids at equal rates and got alternatively activated. Interestingly, significantly higher amounts of HIF-1alpha(-/-) Mcapital EF, Cyrillics expressed the TAM markers CD206 and stabilin-1 compared with wt phagocytes. Stimulation of infiltrated TAMs with lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/interferon-gamma revealed a reduced expression of the pro-inflammatory markers interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and inducible nitric oxide synthase in HIF-1alpha(-/-) Mcapital EF, Cyrillics. Furthermore, HIF-1alpha(-/-) Mcapital EF, Cyrillics were less cytotoxic toward tumor cells. Although infiltration of Mcapital EF, Cyrillics increased the invasive potential of tumor spheroids independently of HIF-1, the ability to stimulate differentiation of stem cells toward CD31-positive cells was triggered by wt but not by HIF-1alpha(-/-) Mcapital EF, Cyrillics. Our data suggest that HIF-1alpha-deficient Mcapital EF, Cyrillics develop a more prominent TAM marker profile accompanied by reduced cytotoxicity, whereas HIF-1 seems indispensable for the angiogenesis-promoting properties of TAMs. FAU - Werno, Christian AU - Werno C AD - Institute of Biochemistry I--Pathobiochemistry/Zentrum fur Arzneimittelforschung, Entwicklung und Sicherheit, Faculty of Medicine, Goethe-University Frankfurt, Theodor-Stern-Kai 7, 60590 Frankfurt, Germany.
