A macrophage autonomous alpha4beta1integrin-Syk-Rac2 signaling axis controls macrophage differentiation, tumor growth and metastasis


ABSTRACT: Macrophages, play an essential role in promoting tumor growth by affecting angiogenesis, immune suppression, invasion and metastasis. The signal transduction events within macrophages which encode the complex cascade of events required for tumor growth and polarization of macrophages are poorly understood. We have discovered an ECM dependent signaling pathway in macrophages that regulates M2 macrophage differentiation, tumor growth, invasion and metastasis. We provide direct evidence that a macrophage autonomous, M-NM-14M-NM-21 integrin dependent Syk-Rac2 signaling axis acts in concert with the p110 isoform (PTEN-PI-3 kinase pathway) to control metastasis. Bone marrow derived macrophages from five wild type and five Rac2 -/- mutant C57BL mice.
