Abstract

The cloned mouse macrophage cell line, BAC1.25F, resembles primary macrophages in its dependence on colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) forboth viability and proliferation. Re-addition of CSF-1 to cytokine-deprived cells, which are rounded with diffusely organised F-actin, stimulates rapid cell spreading and cell polarisation. Using the Dunn chemotaxis chamber the movement of stimulated macrophages was monitored over a 2 hour period. Cells restimulated with 1.32 nM human recombinant CSF-1 migrated at a mean rate of 7.71 mu m per hour, but showed no directional preferences. In a linear concentration gradient of CSF-1, cytokine-deprived cells were again stimulated to migrate and the mean rate of cell motility, at 6.88 mu m per hour, was not significantly different from that measured in an isotropic environment of CSF-1. However,there was a strong preference for the cells to orientate so that their long axes aligned with the CSF-1 gradient and they migrated preferentially towards the source of CSF-1. Migrating cells contained abundantF-actin within the leading lamellae as judged by confocal imaging of fluorescent phalloidin, but the actin was not arranged into stress fibre-like structures. These data support the proposition that CSF-1 is both a chemokinetic and chemotactic agent for macrophages. Tumour necrosis factor (TNF-alpha) failed to stimulate cell migration and thus wasneither chemokinetic nor a chemotactic agent. However, cells exposed to a dual concentration gradient of both TNF-alpha and CSF-1 did migrate successfully, although the chemotactic response to CSF-1 was abolished.
