Effect of SREBP2 silencing on gene expression of THP-1 monocytes under hypoxic condition


ABSTRACT: Monocyte infiltrate hypoxic tumor center to initiate pro-tumorigenic immune response and angiogenesis, however the detailed mechanism and responsible metabolic pathway was not investigated. Here we report that monocyte macrophage lineage cells are uniquely responsive to hypoxia compared to cancer cells and fibroblasts, upregulating cholesterol biosynthesis through SREBP2 regulation. Disruption of SREBP2 offsets upregulation of hypoxia-induced cholesterol biosynthesis gene expression. In addition, hypoxia-induced SREBP2 activation is lineage-dependent, and this activation is lost when monocyte matures to macrophage, suggesting a metabolic switch during differentiation. Finally, inhibiting cholesterol synthesis using statin reduces tumor burden and infiltration of pro-tumor immune cells into tumor center. In summary, SREBP2 regulated hypoxic response in monocytes are essential for tumor growth and is a potent drug target for novel therapeutic strategies.
