ABSTRACT
Activated T cells express the inducible T-cell co-stimulator (ICOS) that, upon binding to its ubiquitously expressed ligand (ICOSL), regulates the immune response and tissue repair. We sought to determine the effect of ICOSICOSL interaction on human M1 and M2 macrophages. M1 and M2 macrophages were polarized from monocyte-derived macrophages, and the effect of a soluble recombinant form of ICOS (ICOS-CH3) was assessed on cytokine production and cell migration. We show that ICOS-CH3 treatment increased the secretion of CCL3 and CCL4 in resting M1 and M2 cells. In LPS-treated M1 cells, ICOS-CH3 inhibited the secretion of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10 and CCL4, while it increased that of IL-23. In contrast, M2 cells treated with LPS + IL4 displayed enhanced secretion of IL-6, IL-10, CCL3 and CCL4. In CCL7- or osteopontin-treated M1 cells, ICOS-CH3 boosted the migration rate of M1 cells while it decreased that of M2 cells. Finally, ß-Pix expression was upregulated in M1 cells and downregulated in M2 cells by treatment with ICOS-CH3. These findings suggest that ICOSL activation modulates the activity of human M1 and M2 cells, thereby eliciting an overall anti-inflammatory effect consistent with its role in promoting tissue repair.
