Figure Lengend Snippet: KSM inhibits CHI3L1-stimulated M2 macrophage activation via EGFR. Bulk RNA-seq sequencing analysis on the differentiated macrophages from THP-1 cells was used to evaluate mRNA expression in the macrophage differentiation regulated by CHI3L1 and KSM. ( A ). Volcano plots showing differentially expressed genes regulated by CHI3L1. ( B ) Representative plots of the top 20 genes that are upregulated (> 2-fold) by CHI3L1 stimulation but downregulated (< 2-fold) by KSM treatment. ( C ) Representative mRNA expression of EGFR in differentiated macrophages with CHI3L1 and KSM treatment was detected by real-time qRT-PCR. ( D ) Representative immunoblots showing p-EGFR (Tyr1068) and total EGFR expression in differentiated macrophages with CHI3L1 and KSM. Right panel, densitometric quantitation on the blots of EGFR and p-EGFR. ( E ) Effect of EGFR inhibition on the expression of p-STAT3 and total-STAT3 in CHI3L1-stimulated, differentiated macrophages by gefitinib (Tocris Bioscience, #3000) treatment (1 μM, 72 hours). Right panel, densitometric quantitation on the blots of p-STAT3 and total STAT3. ( F ) Effects of EGFR inhibition on the expression of CD163 and CD206 in CHI3L1-stimulated, differentiated macrophages by gefitinib treatment (0.1 and 1 μM, 72 hours). Right panel, densitometric quantitation on the blots of CD163 and CD206. The values in ( C – F ) are the mean ± SEM. * P <0.05, ** P <0.01, *** P <0.001 (One-Way ANOVA, multiple comparisons).
