Tumor-associated macrophages play an important role in tumorigenesis and metastasis. Trafficking of macrophages to the proximity of tumors is mediated by CSF-1, a growth factor. In this study, we investigated the role of PKB/Akt in CSF-1-induced macrophage migration. Disruption of Akt2 expression by small interference RNA impaired chemotaxis of both THP-1 cells and mouse peritoneal macrophages. Phosphorylation of PKCzeta, an essential component in chemotaxis signaling pathway, was reduced. LIMK/Cofilin, downstream of PKCzeta, regulated cytoskeleton rearrangement during cell migration. Disruption of Akt2 expression inhibited CSF-1-induced LIMK/Cofilin phosphorylation, which contributed to defects in actin polymerization and chemotaxis. Furthermore, MCP-1, a chemokine, -induced macrophage chemotaxis was also impaired. Taken together, our results demonstrated that Akt2 plays an essential role in both CSF-1- and chemokine-induced chemotaxis of macrophages.
