1 TAM and cancer: from the early days on RUDOLF LUDWIG KARL VIRCHOW ( ) omnis cellula e cellula (Balkwill and Mantovani. Inflammation and Cancer: back to Virchow. Lancet 2001) Cytotoxicity Growth factors, vascular reactions angiogenesis (direct or via IL1/TNF) (direct, via PCA fibrin) (Mantovani, Curr Op Immunol 1990; Mantovani et al, Immunol Today 1992)

2 Polarization of macrophage fuctions: a simplified view Tumor resistance Killing of intracellular parasites Tissue destruction Immunoregulation Angiogenesis Tissue remodeling Th1 Parasite encapsulation Tumor promotion LPS M1 IFN IL10 Immune complexes IL1/LPS M2s CSF1 IL21 IL4, IL13 IL12 high ; IL23 high ; IL10 low ; ROI; RNI; TNF high ; IL1 high ; M1 chemokines (e.g. CXCL10). IL12 low ; IL23 low ; IL10 high ; arginase1; TNF low ; IL1ra high ; decoy IL1 RII high ; MMP9high; scavenger, mannose, galactose receptor high ; M2 chemokines (e.g. CCL22). (modified from Mantovani et al., Blood 2006; Mantovani et al., Trends Immunol and 2004)

3 The interplay between TAM and breast carcinoma cells: lessons from patients and mice MCSF Chemokines (CCL2; CCL5) EGF TAM Recruitment M2 skewing CARCINOMA Progression (adenoma carcinoma), Growth, Invasion, Metastasis 1. High TAM: bad prognosis (6 studies) 2. High MCSF, CCL2, CCL5: bad prognosis (1 study each) 3. TAM are the sole source of EGF in human breast carcinoma (Harris) 4. TAM accumulate in areas of hypoxia/angiogenesis (Harris; Lewis) 5. TAM have a M2like activation phenotype (Sica) 6. MCSF polarizes macrophages towards M2 (Martinez) 7. TAM recruitment (via MCSF) is required for progression in mice (adenoma carcinoma) (Pollard) 8. TAM promote angiogenesis, growth, invasion and metastasis in mice (Pollard)

4 Selected evidence for a protumor function of inflammatory reactions Epidemiological association between inflammation and cancer: thyroid, bladder, cervical, ovarian, prostate, esophagus, stomach, colon Protection against cancer (colon, breast) by NSAIDs and antibiotics Inflammatory cells, cytokines and chemokines are present in the darwinian microenvironment of neoplastic tissues Frequent (but not universal) correlation between high macrphage infiltration and poor prognosis Tumor promotion by adoptive transfer of inflammatory cells Functional polymorphisms of inflammatory cytokines (IL1, TNF) are associate with cancer susceptability and severity Cytokine or NFkB (including myeloidspecific) genetargeted mice are protected against carcinogenes, matastases and lymphoproliferative symdrome (Balkwill and Mantovani, Lancet 2001; Balkwill and Mantovani, Cancer Cell 2005; Mantovani, Nature 2005)

32 MONOCYTETO MACROPHAGE DIFFERENTIATION AND POLARIZATION: LESSONS FROM PROFILING MCSF driven monocytetom differentiation is associated with activation of cell cycle genes, possibly a reflection of an underestimated proliferation potential of monocytes MCSF leads to expression of a substantial part of the M2 transcriptome, suggesting that under homeostatic conditions a default shift towards M2 occurs Lipid metabolism is a main category of modulated transcripts, with expected upregulation of Cox2 and SPHK1 in M1 cells and unexpected Cox1 and CERK1 upregulation in M2 cells Each step is characterized by a different repertoire of G proteincoupled receptors, with 5 nucleotide receptors as novel M2 associated genes The chemokinome of polarized M is profoundly different and new differentially expressed chemokines were identified The solute carrier family is widely influenced by M polarization, which suggests a pivotal role of these poorly studied molecules in macrophage pathophysiology
