Abstract:
In response to different stimuli (e.g., infections), naive macrophages polarize into M1 macrophages, which have the potential to secrete numerous pro-inflammatory cytokines and extracellular vesicles (EVs). EVs are important mediators of intercellular communication. Via horizontal transfer, EVs transport various molecules (e.g., proteins, DNA, and RNA) to target cells. This in vitro study elucidated that M1-EVs from macrophages induced by interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 24 h (M1), but not M0-EVs from untreated macrophages (M0), shifted M0 into M1 phenotype via activating the nuclear factor-κB pathway. The characteristics of these EVs were assessed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and a western blot assay. RAW 264.7 cells were incubated with M1-EVs (experimental group) or PBS (sham group) or M0-EVs (control group) for 24 h. The viability, change of shape, and phenotype differentiation of the macrophages were identified by a
