PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) on macrophage polarization, phagocytosis, and killing through regulation of the CCL2/CCR2 signaling pathway in Aspergillus fumigatus keratitis.
METHODS: In vivo and in vitro experiments were conducted in mice and mouse peritoneal macrophages after infection with A. fumigatus . Clinical scoring, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, and immunofluorescence staining were used to evaluate the fungal keratitis lesions, macrophage-related cytokines, and macrophage recruitment. The expression of CCL2 and CCR2 was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and western blot after pretreatment with or without an IDO inhibitor (1-MT). After pretreatment with 1-MT, a CCR2 antagonist, a CCL2 neutralizing antibody, an IDO agonist (IFNG), and recombinant CCL2 protein (CCL2), the flow cytometry and colony-forming unit counts were used to detect the polarization, phagocytosis, and killing function.
RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the infected eyes showed increased clinical scores, macrophage-related cytokine expression, and macrophage recruitment. 1-MT pretreatment increased the expression of CCL2 and CCR2 and the proportion of CD206+/CD86+ macrophages; macrophages polarized toward the M2 type, with enhanced killing function. CCR2 antagonists and CCL2 neutralizing antibodies reversed the effects of 1-MT. Compared with the infected group, IFNG pretreatment decreased the proportion of CD206+/CD86+ macrophages, and macrophages polarized toward the M1 type, with decreased phagocytosis and impaired killing function. CCL2 reversed the effect of IFNG.
CONCLUSIONS: IDO can promote the polarization of macrophages to the M1 type by blocking the CCL2/CCR2 signaling pathway, inhibiting the phagocytosis and killing function of macrophages, and mediating the protective immune role of A. fumigatus .
