TNF expressed by tumor-associated macrophages, but not microglia, can eliminate glioma.

چکیده
It is well known that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) can have both contrary and pleiotropic effects in anti-tumor immune response. In the present study, we prepared two different tumor cell-based immunotherapy models: MCA38 adenocarcinoma and GL261 glioma intracranial interleukin-2 (IL-2)-based. Each tumor was transfected to express IL-2 with or without expression of the soluble form of tumor necrosis factor receptor type II (sTNFRII). Although mice in which TNF is blocked survive longer than IL-2 alone (35.2 versus 26 days), the reverse was observed for GL261 glioma. The differential effect on tumor growth implies enhanced TNF sensitivity of GL261 compared to MCA38. This notion is supported by the observation that TNF induces apoptosis in GL261 but not MCA38 tumors. We further examined tumor infiltrating CD11b+F4/80+ macrophages (or tumor-associated macrophages: TAM) for TNF production in vivo and found that TAM express cell surface TNF implying a role in eliminating glioma cells mediated by the cell surface form of TNF.

Glioblastoma multiform (GBM) is the most common and lethal type of primary brain tumors with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Treatment options are limited and ineffective in most of the cases. Epidemiological studies have shown a link between inflammation and glioma genesis. In addition, at the molecular level, pro-inflammatory cytokines released from activated microglia can increa...

Malignant gliomas are highly invasive brain tumors with the occurrence of multiple microglia/macrophages in the tumor microenvironment. Macrophages/microglia that found in glioma microenvironment, as tumor-infiltrating immune cells, can play a harmful role in tumor progression. In addition, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) contains multiple aberrant differentiation and tumorigenic cancer stem cell...

Microglia (MG) and macrophages (MPs) represent a significant component of the inflammatory response to gliomas. When activated, MG/MP release a variety of pro-inflammatory cytokines, however, they also secrete anti-inflammatory factors that limit their cytotoxic function. The balance between pro and anti-inflammatory functions dictates their antitumor activity. To evaluate potential variations ...

BACKGROUND Accumulation and infiltration of microglia/brain macrophages around and into glioma tissue promote tumor invasion and expansion. One tumor-promoting mechanism of microglia/brain macrophages is upregulation of membrane type 1 matrix metalloprotease (MT1-MMP), which promotes the degradation of extracellular matrix. MT1-MMP upregulation is induced by soluble factors released by glioma c...
