Low phagocytic activity of resident peritoneal macrophages in diabetic mice: relevance to the formation of advanced glycation end products.

Abstract: Formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) is accelerated in diabetic subjects along with hyperglycemia. Although several lines of evidence indicate that AGEs stimulate macrophages to secrete several cytokines and growth factors, little is known about the effect of AGEs on the primary function of macrophages, such as phagocytosis. On the other hand, impairment of the phagocytic function of monocytes/macrophages is suggested to contribute to the low resistance to infection in diabetic subjects. In the … Show more

“…The diabetic state is known to alter macrophage function resulting in increased lipoprotein lipase production and TNF-␣ release (40). In addition, hyperglycemia, through the generation of advanced glycation end products, increases macrophage secretion of IL-1 and TNF-␣ while enhancing intercellular adhesion molecule 1 expression and decreasing phagocytic activity (41). Because the IRS-2/PI3-kinase pathway is common to both IL-4 and insulin signaling in macrophages, we wanted to demonstrate that IL-4-dependent IRS-2/PI3-kinase signal transduction was inhibited in diabetic macrophages and that the likely mechanism was a result of mTOR-dependent serine phosphorylation of IRS-2 on Ser/ThrPro motifs.…”

“…AGE products produced in diabetic condition were also found to be detrimental to phagocytic activity of peritoneal macrophages [21]. The difference between diabetic and non-diabetic persons was not significant but diabetes was less prevalent in the peritonitis-free group.…”

“…Thus, AGEs themselves have been shown to elicit opposite effects from those have shown here, especially the increase of TNF-α release and suppression of phagocytic ability (18,19), indicating that AGEs may not be the crucial chemical component in the thioglycolate containing Brewer's medium. Macrophages play a key role in the innate response and in the orchestration of an adaptive immune response, by releasing proinflammatory mediators that recruit other immune cells to the site of infection and by processing and presenting antigen to lymphocytes eventually mediating a specific host response.…”
