Diverse in vivo effects of soluble and membrane-bound M-CSF on tumor-associated macrophages in lymphoma xenograft model.

ABSTRACT: Macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) is an important cytokine for monocyte/macrophage lineage. Secretory M-CSF (sM-CSF) and membrane-bound M-CSF (mM-CSF) are two major alternative splicing isoforms. The functional diversity of these isoforms in the activation of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), especially in lymphoma microenvironment, has not been documented. Here, we studied the effects of M-CSF isoforms on TAMs in xenograft mouse model. More infiltrating TAMs were detected in microenvironment with mM-CSF and sM-CSF. TAMs could be divided into three subpopulations based on their expression of CD206 and Ly6C. While sM-CSF had greater potential to recruit and induce differentiation of TAMs and TAM subpopulations, mM-CSF had greater potential to induce proliferation of TAMs and TAM subpopulations. Though both isoforms educated TAMs and TAM subpopulations to M2-like macrophages, mM-CSF and sM-CSF induced different spectrums of phenotype-associated genes in TAMs and TAM subpopulations. These results suggested the diverse effects of M-CSF isoforms on the activation of TAMs and TAM subpopulations in lymphoma microenvironments.

Project description:The superfamily of cytochrome P450s forms a large class of heme monooxygenases with more than 13,000 enzymes represented in organisms from all biological kingdoms. Despite impressive variability in sizes, sequences, location, and function, all cytochrome P450s from various organisms have very similar tertiary structures within the same fold. Here we show that systematic comparison of all available X-ray structures of cytochrome P450s reveals the presence of two distinct structural classes of cytochrome P450s. For all membrane bound enzymes, except the CYP51 family, the beta-domain and the A-propionate heme side chain are shifted towards the proximal side of the heme plane, which may result in an increase of the volume of the substrate binding pocket and an opening of a potential channel for the substrate access and/or product escape directly into the membrane. This structural feature is also observed in several soluble cytochrome P450s, such as CYP108, CYP151, and CYP158A2, which catalyze transformations of bulky substrates. Alternatively, both beta-domains and the A-propionate side chains in the soluble isozymes extend towards the distal site of the heme. This difference between the structures of soluble and membrane bound cytochrome P450s can be rationalized through the presence of several amino acid inserts in the latter class which are involved in direct interactions with the membrane, namely the F'- and G'-helices. Molecular dynamics using the most abundant human cytochrome P450, CYP3A4, incorporated into a model POPC bilayer reveals the facile conservation of a substrate access channel, directed into the membrane between the B-C loop and the beta domain, and the closure of the peripheral substrate access channel directed through the B-C loop. This is in contrast to the case when the same simulation is run in buffer, where no such channel closing occurs. Taken together, these results reveal a key structural difference between membrane bound and soluble cytochrome P450s with important functional implications induced by the lipid bilayer.
