Journal Article
Androgen receptor signalling in macrophages promotes TREM-1-mediated prostate cancer cell line migration and invasion
2020
Overview
The androgen receptor (AR) is the master regulator of prostate cancer (PCa) development, and inhibition of AR signalling is the most effective PCa treatment. AR is expressed in PCa cells and also in the PCa-associated stroma, including infiltrating macrophages. Macrophages have a decisive function in PCa initiation and progression, but the role of AR in macrophages remains largely unexplored. Here, we show that AR signalling in the macrophage-like THP-1 cell line supports PCa cell line migration and invasion in culture via increased Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) signalling and expression of its downstream cytokines. Moreover, AR signalling in THP-1 and monocyte-derived macrophages upregulates IL-10 and markers of tissue residency. In conclusion, our data suggest that AR signalling in macrophages may support PCa invasiveness, and blocking this process may constitute one mechanism of anti-androgen therapy.
Anti-androgen therapy inhibits prostate cancer (PC) progression, and is thought to act directly on cancer cells. Here the authors show that androgen receptor is expressed on normal and PC-associated macrophages, and its stimulation alters macrophage secretome to promote migration of cultured PC cell lines.
