ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate the relationship between M2-polarized macrophages and early response in multiple myeloma and its molecular mechanism.@*Methods@#Two hundred and forty bone marrow biopsy tissue were collected and M2-polarized macrophages were stained by anti-CD163 monoclonal antibody. In vitro M2-polarized macrophages were derived from human peripheral blood mononuclear cell or THP-1 cells and identified by flow cytometry. Two myeloma cell lines RPMI 8226 and U266 were co-cultured with M2 macrophages using a transwell system. We measured myeloma cells proliferation through CCK-8 method and the pro-inflammatory cytokines expression (TNF-α and IL-6) by ELISA. Real time PCR was applied to measure chemokines (CCL2 and CCL3) , chemokine receptors (CCR2, CCR5) , VEGF and their receptors. In addition, flow cytometry was used to analyze the apoptosis of myeloma cells induced by dexamethasone.@*Results@#①Patients with high percentage of M2 macrophage involvement in bone marrow showed poorer response (23.9% versus 73.0%, χ2=60.31, P<0.001). ② In vitro the proliferation of RPMI 8226 cells (P=0.005 at 24 h, P=0.020 at 36 h) or U266 myeloma cells (P= 0.030 at 24h, P=0.020 at 36h) co-cultured with M2-polarized macrophages was higher than control group. ③In vitro the apoptotic rate of RPMI 8226 cells (29.0% versus 71.0%, t=4.97, P=0.008) or U266 myeloma cells (24.9% versus 67.7%, t=6.99, P=0.002) co-cultured with M2-polarized macrophages was lower than control group. ④ In vitro M2-polarized macrophages promoted myeloma cells secreting higher level of IL-6, TNF-α and higher expression of CCL2, CCL3, CCR2, CCR5, VEGFA, VEGFR-1,-2 compared with the non-macrophage co-culture system.@*Conclusion@#M2-polarized macrophages promote myeloma cells proliferation and inhibit apoptosis through a very complex mechanism involving pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α, chemokines and related receptors such as CCL2, CCL3, CCR2, CCR3, and VEGF as well as related VEGFR.
