Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are major components of the tumor microenvironment. Although a role for TAMs in promoting tumor progression has been revealed, the differentiation mechanisms and intrinsic signals of TAMs regulated by the tumor microenvironment remain unclear. Here we constructed an in vitro TAMs cell model, TES-TAMs, which is from tumor-extract-stimulated bone-marrow-derived macrophages. We performed a comparative proteomics analysis of bone-marrow-derived macrophages and TES-TAMs, which indicated that TES-TAMs possessed characteristic molecular expression of TAMs. Intriguingly, the signal pathways enriched in up-regulated differentially expressed proteins of TAMs demonstrated that glycolysis metabolism reprogramming may play an important role in TAM differentiation. We found that hexokinase-2, a key mediator of aerobic glycolysis, and the downstream proteins PFKL and ENO1 were remarkably increased in both TES-TAMs and primary TAMs from our MMTV-PyMT mice model. This phenomenon was then verified in human THP-1 cell lines stimulated by tumor extract solution from breast cancer patient. Taken together, our study provides insight into the induction of TAM differentiation by the tumor microenvironment through metabolic reprogramming.
