Project Title:Comparative Metabolomic Profiling of Bone Marrow-Derived Macrophages from Wild-Type and MG53-KO Mice
Project Summary:Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are pivotal players in the tumor microenvironment. Our preliminary research has identified the expression of MG53 (Mitsugumin 53) in TAMs. Through a series of in vitro and in vivo experiments, we have initially demonstrated that the genetic ablation of MG53 drives macrophages toward a pro-tumoric M2-like phenotypic polarization. The primary objective of this project was to investigate the underlying metabolic reprogramming associated with MG53 deficiency in macrophages. We hypothesized that the MG53-mediated M2 polarization would be underpinned by a distinct metabolic profile. This study aimed to comprehensively characterize the metabolomic landscape of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) from MG53-knockout (KO) mice compared to their wild-type (WT) littermates to validate this hypothesis at the metabolic level. Our metabolomic analysis successfully revealed a definitive M2-like metabolic signature in MG53-KO BMDMs. This provides crucial functional validation of our prior findings and establishes a direct link between MG53 and metabolic reprogramming in macrophage polarization. These results position MG53 as a novel and critical regulator at the nexus of immunometabolism, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for modulating macrophage function in cancer.
