摘要:
The invention provides an in vitro method for inducing macrophage polarization to an M2 phenotype useful for tissue repair. The method described in the present invention comprises the in vitro exposure of macrophages to repeated series of hypoxia-reoxygenation. Activated M2 macrophages obtained by this method overexpress molecules important for tissue remodeling and amelioration of inflammation, such as NGAL and anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10). Thus, M2 macrophages obtained by this method are useful as cell therapy for tissue regeneration. The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions and kits comprising the M2 macrophages obtained by the described method. The invention further refers to a device for inducing hypoxia and re-oxygenation conditions on isolated macrophages according to the described method.
