Iloprost Affects Macrophage Activation and CCL2 Concentrations in a Microdialysis Model in Rats

Abstract: Localized delivery of iloprost caused macrophage activation at the tissue interface of a microdialysis subcutaneous implant in rat. This model system may be useful for testing other potential macrophage modulators in vivo.

“…This finding was further confirmed by the increase of the pro-regenerative M2 type macrophages under the influence of Iloprost. The group of Alkhabit also showed an immune modulatory effect of Iloprost on macrophage polarization toward a pro-regenerative phenotype in an in vivo model system in rats, supporting our findings (33). Regarding bone fracture healing, possible negative effects of Iloprost on MSCs and bone forming osteoblasts as well as bone resorbing osteoclasts have to be considered.…”

“…We believe that, the NLRP3 inflammasome has a direct regulatory effect on MCP-1 transcription that is independent of IL-1β, which is very important because many studies have demonstrated the important role of MCP-1 in the macrophage polarization towards the M1 phenotype and in impairment of cardiac function. [27][28][29] Notably, the role of MCP-1 in driving the direction of macrophage polarization has been controversial in many nonheart disease studies. [30][31][32][33][34][35][36] However, in studies related to cardiovascular disease and heart failure, the role of the MCP-1-CCR2 pathway in promoting M1 polarization and the proinflammatory effect of CCR2 + macrophages have been more widely reported, [37][38][39][40][41][42][43] which is consistent with our experimental results.…”
