Exosomes are typically involved in cellular communication and signaling. Macrophages play a key role in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced sepsis. However, the molecular comparison of exosomes derived from LPS-induced macrophage has not been well analyzed. The macrophage-exosomes are validated and the protein composition of those exosomes are investigated by isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) mass spectrometry. A total of 5056 proteins are identified in macrophage-exosomes. We discovered 341 increased proteins and 363 reduced proteins in LPS-treated macrophage-exosomes compared with control exosomes. In addition, gene ontology analysis demonstrates that macrophage-exosomes proteins are mostly linked to cell, organelle, extracellular region, and membrane. The bioinformatics analysis also indicates that these proteins are mainly involved in cellular process, single-organism process, metabolic process, and biological regulation. Among these 341 upregulated proteins, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis reveals that 22 proteins are involved in the NOD-like receptor signaling pathway. Finally, hepatocytes can uptake macrophage-exosomes and subsequently NLRP3 inflammasome is activated in vitro and in vivo. These data emphasize the fundamental importance of macrophage-exosomes in sepsis-induced liver injury. Therefore, the iTRAQ proteomic strategy brings new insights into macrophage-derived exosomes. It may improve our understanding of macrophage-exosomes' functions and their possible use as therapeutic targets for sepsis.

The interaction between a cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47) on cancer cells and signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) on macrophages is thought to hinder macrophage phagocytic activity, which can be blocked by combining siRNAs targeting SIRPα (siSIRPα) with simultaneous involvement of activating receptors like FcRs (Fc receptors) anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (anti-PD-L1). For this study, M1 macrophage-derived exosomes were used to deliver the siRNAs, isolated from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells and electroporated with siSIRPα.

Objective: Accumulating evidence suggests that microRNAs derived from macrophage exosomes can regulate the stemness and progression of cancer. However, the interaction mechanisms between HCC cells and tumor-associated macrophages remain unclear.

Methods: Exosomes were extracted from control or CD63 overexpression macrophages and co-cultured with HCC cells.

Macrophage is an important component in the tumor immune microenvironment, which exerts significant influence on tumor development and metastasis. Due to their dual nature of promoting and suppressing inflammation, macrophages can serve as both targets for tumor immunotherapy and tools for treating malignancies. However, the abundant infiltration of tumor-associated macrophages dominated by an immunosuppressive phenotype maintains a pro-tumor microenvironment, and engineering macrophages using nanotechnology to manipulate the tumor immune microenvironment represent a feasible approach for cancer immunotherapy.
