Macrophages specifically regulate the concentration of their own growth factor in the circulation.

Abstract: The physiological mechanism of clearance of the mononuclear phagocyte growth factor, colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1), from the circulation of normal mice was investigated by following the fate of a trace amount of i.v.injected '25I-labeled CSF-1. Macrophages selectively cleared CSF-1 by CSF-1 receptor-mediated endocytosis and degraded the growth factor intracellularly. This manner of clearance provides a feedback control mechanism whereby the rate of macrophage production is determined by the number of mat… Show more

“…We have shown previously that blockade of CSF-1R with AFS-98 increases serum CSF-1 levels (35), most likely due to a reduction in CSF-1R-mediated CSF-1 internalization by macrophage lineage cells (47,48). Treatment of 4T1.2 and EMT6.5 tumor-bearing mice with AFS-98 significantly elevated CSF-1 levels in the serum (Fig.…”

“…Macrophage colony-stimulating factor (CSF-I) is a glycoprotein that is present in the circulation (10) and is required for the production of monocytes by the bone marrow and the maintenance of mature macrophage function (11). CSF-1 acts on macrophages by binding to a surface receptor (the c-fms proto-oncogene) which is a CSF-1-dependent protein tyrosine kinase (12.13).…”

“…The spCSF-1 isoform that is increased in the serum and kidney during lupus nephritis restores renal disease (pathology and loss of function), the accumulation of intrarenal MĂž, and TEC apoptosis in the MRL-Fas lpr mice deficient in CSF-1. The effect of spCSF-1 on lupus nephritis is particularly striking because spCSF-1 and sgCSF-1 have a short half-life (approximately 10 minutes) in vivo, at least in normal mice, 29 as compared with csCSF-1 (approximately 7 hours in cultured cells). 30 Moreover, our findings for the spCSF-1 isoform are even more impressive because the TgSPP/Ï© strain that we backcrossed with MRL-Fas lpr mice only generates half the amount of serum CSF-1 compared with WT mice, and the sgCSF-1 isoform is responsible for contributing the other half.…”

“…Saturation of the physiologic clearance mechanism greatly extends the half-life of circulating CSF-1. 29 Moreover, it is impressive that spCSF-1, as opposed to sgCSF-1, is retained in the kidney and is biologically central to advancing lupus nephritis. The ChS chain is central to the CSF-1 mechanisms advancing lupus nephritis, because the covalently-linked glycosaminoglycan ChS chain is the only difference between the precursors of the spCSF-1 and sgCSF-1.…”
