Distinct Roles for IFN Regulatory Factor (IRF)-3 and IRF-7 in the Activation of Antitumor Properties of Human Macrophages

Abstract: When properly activated, macrophages can be tumoricidal, thus making them attractive additions to standard cancer therapies. To this end, tolerance and activity of human autologous IFN-;-activated macrophages, produced in large scale for clinical use (MAK cells), have been assessed in pilot trials in cancer patients. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that activation of IFN regulatory factor (IRF)-3 and IRF-7, with subsequent type

“…The transcription factors for Noxa and TRAIL are IRF3 and IRF7, respectively (36,37), both of which are regulated by MAVS (38). HVJ-E-induced cell death was suppressed by IRF3 siRNA in DU145 cells and by IRF7 siRNA in PC3 cells (Supplementary Fig.…”

“…PC3, A549, MDA-MB-231, and NSF1227 cells were maintained in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (Nacalai Tesque Inc.), and the DU145, LNCaP, PNT1, and PNT2 cells were maintained in RPMI-1640 medium (Nacalai Tesque Inc.), with 10% FBS (Biowest), 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 mg/mL streptomycin (penicillin-streptomycin mixed solution; Nacalai Tesque Inc.). The cells were incubated at 37 C in a humidified atmosphere of 95% air and 5% CO 2 . Nonobese diabetic-severe combined immunodeficient (NOD-SCID) mice, ages 6 weeks, were purchased from Japan Clea and were maintained in a temperaturecontrolled, pathogen-free room.…”

“…16 Several studies have indicated that the phenotype of macrophages can change in vivo over time 17,18 ; for example, it was reported that macrophages in the earliest stages of cancer resembled classically activated macrophages, yet, with tumor growth, macrophages developed a regulatory phenotype. 19,20 Another example is the observation that macrophages in adipose tissue of nonobese humans have a woundhealing phenotype yet can switch to a proinflammatory phenotype in obese individuals. 21,22 It is not clear whether phenotypic deviation can occur in transfused anti-inflammatory macrophages used to treat various diseases.…”

“…The role of TAMs in tumor progression has been controversial. Early reports correlated macrophage infiltration with tumor suppression (11,12). However, other studies suggested that elevated TAM numbers correlate with poor clinical outcome in many types of human cancers (7,9,10).…”
