PGE2 promotes macrophage recruitment and neovascularization in murine wet-type AMD models

Abstract: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a progressive chronic disease of the central retina, is a leading cause of blindness worldwide. Activated macrophages recruited to the injured eyes greatly contribute to the pathogenesis of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in exudative AMD (wet AMD). This study describes the effects of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2)/prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) signalling on the macrophage activation and CNV formation of wet AMD. In a mouse model of laser-induced wet AMD, the mice received an intr… Show more

“…M1 mainly secrete proinflammatory cytokines such as Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and IL-1, IL-6 which are responsible for the recruitment of immune cells at the defect and initiation of the acute inflammatory response, leading to inflammation, tissue injury and fibrosis [ 51 ]. IL-10, related with M1 augmentation, plays a central role in tissue repair and neovascularization [ 13 , 52 ], increasing osteogenesis and decreasing osteoclastogenesis via activating exosomal IL-10 mRNA to cells, directly [ 13 , 39 , 53 ]. Thereby, M1 lay the foundation for subsequent bone tissue repair [ 17 ].…”

“…M2 macrophages are closely associated with VEGF production ( 132 , 140 ). The histone acetyltransferase p300/spliced X-box binding protein 1/homocysteine-inducible endoplasmic reticulum protein with ubiquitin-like domain 1 ( 115 ), CSF1/CSF-1R ( 116 ) and prostaglandin E2/E-prostanoid 1 receptor/protein kinase C axis ( 117 ) can all, when hypoxic circumstances exist, stimulate M2 macrophage polarization, hence increase choroidal vascular endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and tube formation. M2 macrophages express leukotriene B4 (LTB4) receptor 1 (BLT1) which is drawn to the LTB to generate VEGF-A in a BLT1-dependent manner, inducing choroidal neovascularization formation ( 141 ).…”

“…M2 polarization has been regarded as a key promoter in various angiogenetic disorders, including choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and retinal neovascularization (RNV) [ 4 , 5 ]. Increased PGE2 in wAMD participates in M2 polarization and IL-10 production via the EP1R/ PKC signaling pathway, which additionally promotes the proliferation and migration of human choroidal microvascular endothelial cells (HCECs) in vitro [ 6 ]. Furthermore, inhibiting the RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway facilitated Mφs to transform from the M2 to the M1 phenotype, reducing vascular leakage and abnormal proliferation in CNV [ 7 ].…”
