Outline of Final Research Achievements |
M-CSF stimulates differentiation/survival of macrophages (MF) and induces anti-inflammatory M2 but not pro-inflammatory M1 MF. Recently, another cytokine IL-32 was reported to promote MF differentiation. Here, we found that M-CSF has additive/inhibitory effects on IL-32 activities. When added to M-CSF-MF, these cytokines supported MF survival, which was enhanced by their combination. However, they had opposed effects on HIV-1 replication; stimulated by M-CSF and inhibited by IL-32. Anti-HIV-1 activity of IL-32 was cancelled by M-CSF. Such effect of M-CSF was not seen with IL-32-induced M1-like features including high cytokine/chemokine production and CD80 expression. Of interest, IL-32-treated MF showed also M2-like features including high phagocytosis and expression of CD14 and CD163, the latter of which was up-regulated by combination with M-CSF. Our findings help to further understand the mechanisms regulating HIV-1 replication in MF, and the survival and M1/M2 ratio of MF.
