Abstract: | AIM:To investigate the effect of bafilomycin A1 (Baf A1) on polarization in mouse macrophages RAW264.7. METHODS:The macrophages RAW264.7 were treated with Baf A1, the concentration of M1/M2 polarization related cytokines were determined by ELISA. The markers of M1/M2 polarization in the macrophages were determined by flow cytometry. The formation of autophagicbody was observed by immunofluorescence. Western blot was used to detect the expression of autophagy related protein levels. RESULTS:The concentration of M1 related proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) was increased significantly after Baf A1 intervention (P<0.01). However, the concentration of M2 related anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-10 and IL-13 showed no significant difference. The double positive rate of CD197 and HLA-DR (M1 marker) positive cells in Baf A1 treated group were significant higher than that in control group (P<0.05), indicated that Baf A1 induced polarization of macrophage to M1. The results of immunofluoresence showed that the autophagosomes formation was notable increased in Baf A1 group (P<0.05), meanwhile Western blot results showed the expression of autophay related protein LC3-Ⅱ but not P62 was marked up-regulated (P<0.05). For autophagy activator rapamycin (Rapa) treated group, autophagosome formation was also significant increased (P<0.05), but the expression of P62 was notable down-regulated (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:Baf A1 induces polarization of mouse macrophage RAW264.7 to M1, which may be related to the inhibitory effect on the formation of autolysosome. |
