2 Supplementary Figure 1: Rationale for nanoparticle dose selection. In order to select a dose for the macrophage polarization studies, RAW cells were incubated with a range of doses of 1nm fluorescent gold nanoparticles. Based on these findings, a dose of 1.6x1 14 nm 2 /well was selected.

Flow cytometry histograms showing mean fluorescence inteity for M1 and M2 surface marker expression. Monocytes/macrophages gated as in Figure 2B. Gates for surface stai set based on background in NP- treated utained controls.

5 Supplementary Figure 4: IFN- γ/lps (M1) and LPS/IL- 1 β (M2b)- polarized cells are producing M1 cytokines TNF- α and IL- 12. Freshly isolated monocytes were incubated with 1nm AuNP, washed and then exposed to the established macrophage polarization conditio. After a 6 hr stimulation with 1μg/ml LPS in the presence of brefeldin- A and monein (1:1), CD68 surface- labeled cells were permeablized and stained using the following anti- human antibodies: anti- IFN- γ- AF7, anti- TNF- α, anti- IL12/23, anti- IL- 6 and anti- IL- 1. Gating as in Figure. 2B. Gating for intracellular cytokine staining was calculated based on fluorescence- minus- one (FMO) controls.

6 Supplementary Figure 5: Flow cytometry correlates with ICP- MS when assessing for uptake of 6 and 1nm fluorescent gold nanoparticles. A&B) RAW cells were incubated with six doses of 15, 6, and 1nm fluorescent gold nanoparticles for 4 hours. C) M2C- polarized primary human macrophages were incubated with 4 doses of 1nm fluorescent gold nanoparticles for 4 hours. Plates were prepared in duplicate and one replicate was analyzed for nanoparticle uptake with flow cytometry and the other with ICP- MS. A correlation could not be established for 15nm nanoparticles as no uptake was detected. Correlation was assessed using linear regression and the slope and R squared value for goodness of fit are reported. Plotted are results from 4 independent replicates. ICP- MS values for the three lowest doses of 6nm nanoparticles were below the limit of detection and are not included.

7 Supplementary Figure 6: All macrophage polarizatio preferentially take up larger nanoparticles. Polarized macrophages were incubated with 15nm, 6nm or 1nm fluorescent gold nanoparticles for four hours. Uptake was assessed by flow cytometry and two parameters were utilized. First, the percentage of cells that were nanoparticle positive (%NP+ Cells) compared with untreated controls is reported (i). Second, the mean fluorescence inteity of the nanoparticle- positive gate is demotrated (ii). As 15nm nanoparticles were not taken up by any of the polarized macrophages, they were excluded from the mean fluorescence inteity analysis. Error bars are representative of four independent replicates. Statistical significance was evaluated using a two- tailed independent Student s t- test (P<.1, P<.1, P<.5, = not significant or P>.5).

8 Supplementary Figure 7: Nanoparticle uptake depends on macrophage polarization. Fresh monocytes (Fresh mono) and/or polarized macrophages were plated and exposed to A) 1nm and B) 6nm fluorescent gold nanoparticles or C) 1nm fluorescent silica nanoparticles for four hours. Dose was normalized based on total nanoparticle surface area per well. Mean fluorescence inteity for 1nm AuNP uptake was normalized for each experiment. Normalized MFI= [MFI for NP uptake/maximum MFI for NP uptake]1. Percentage and MFI of each monocyte/macrophage type that are nanoparticle- positive following 1nm AuNP exposure. Error bars are representative of at least A) 6 and B) 4 and C) 3 independent experiments, ± s.e.m.

9 Supplementary Figure 8: Early nanoparticle uptake depends on macrophage polarization. M1 and M2C polarized macrophages were plated and exposed to 1nm fluorescent gold nanoparticles for 2, 4, 8 and 24 hours. Experiments were carried out in triplicate. Dose was normalized based on total nanoparticle surface area per well. Error bars are representative of at least 3 independent experiments, ± s.e.m. Statistical significance was evaluated using an unpaired student s T test ( P<.1, P<.5 =not significant or P>.5). 1 1nm 1nm -M1 1nm- M2C 15 1nm 1nm-M1 1nm- M2C % NP+ CD68 Cells % NP+ CD68 Cells Hours nm Hours 6nm-M1 6nm- M2C NP+ MFI (AF-75) NP+ MFI (AF-75) Hours nm 6nm-M1 6nm- M2C Hours 1 15nm 15nm 8 15nm- M1 15nm- M2C 15 15nm- M1 15nm- M2C % NP+ CD68 Cells NP+ MFI (AF-75) Hours Hours

10 Supplementary Figure 9: Correlation of M1 and M2 surface marker expression and uptake of 6nm Au NP. Monocytes and polarized macrophages were plated and exposed to 6nm fluorescent gold nanoparticles for four hours. Dose was normalized based on total nanoparticle surface area per well. Cells were then stained with CD68 to identify monocytes/macrophages and with anti- human HLA- DR, CD25 and CD86 (M1 surface markers) and anti- human CD163, CD26 and CD29 (M2 surface markers). Staining determined as described in Fig. 2. A, M2 markers positively correlate with uptake of 6nm AuNP. i) Representative plots showing the correlation between CD26 MFI and uptake of 6nm AuNP and CD163 MFI and uptake of 6nm AuNP for all 7 monocyte/macrophage polarizatio for a single experiment. ii) Cumulative plots showing the correlatio between CD29, CD26 and CD163 MFI and uptake of 6nm AuNP. Plots show all 7 monocyte/macrophage polarizatio for 4 separate experiments. B, M1 markers CD86 and HLA- DR MFI do not correlate with uptake of 6nm AuNP, CD25 expression does correlate with uptake of 6nm AuNP. Cumulative plots showing the correlatio between CD25, CD86 and HLA- DR MFI and uptake of 1nm AuNP. Plots show all 7 monocyte/macrophage polarizatio for 4 separate experiments. All correlatio were described using the Spearman s rank correlation coefficient. P<.5 coidered significant.

Flow cytometry histograms showing mean fluorescence inteity for M1 and M2 surface marker expression in monocytes pre- treated with 1nm AuNP (1nm pre- treat) or vehicle control (CV pre- treat) prior to polarization. Purified monocytes were exposed to 1nm AuNP or control vehicle for 4 hours prior to polarization with TGF- β/il- 1 as described in Fig. 1. Polarized macrophages gated as in Figure 2B. Gates for surface stai were set based on background in NP- treated utained controls.
