Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS: Macrophage-MPM tumor cell line (2591, MSTO, JU77) co-cultures treated with ADI-PEG20 were analyzed by flow cytometry. Microarray experiments of gene expression profiling were performed in ADI-PEG20-treated MPM tumor cells, and macrophage-relevant genetic "hits" were validated by qPCR, ELISA, and LC/MS. Cytokine and argininosuccinate analyses were performed using plasma from pegargiminase-treated patients with MPM. RESULTS: We identified that ASS1-expressing macrophages promoted viability of ADI-PEG20-treated ASS1-negative MPM cell lines. Microarray gene expression data revealed a dominant CXCR2-dependent chemotactic signature and co-expression of VEGF-A and IL-1α in ADI-PEG20-treated MPM cell lines. We confirmed that ASS1 in macrophages was IL-1α-inducible and that the argininosuccinate concentration doubled in the cell supernatant sufficient to restore MPM cell viability under co-culture conditions with ADI-PEG20. For further validation, we detected elevated plasma VEGF-A and CXCR2-dependent cytokines, and increased argininosuccinate in patients with MPM progressing on ADI-PEG20. Finally, liposomal clodronate depleted ADI-PEG20-driven macrophage infiltration and suppressed growth significantly in the MSTO xenograft murine model. CONCLUSIONS:
