Transmigration of macrophages through primary adult rat Sertoli cells
The blood testis barrier (BTB) is often studied with isolated immature Sertoli cells (SCs), transepithelial resistance (TER) measurements and FITC dextran diffusion assays. Recently, it was found that even in the absence of SCs, only few immune cells enter the seminiferous tubules. Thus, in this study, we evaluated the testicular immunological barrier (TIB) in vitro by transmigration of macrophages through SCs with and without peritubular cells (PCs) and with or without matrigel (MG). Primary PCs were isolated from adult rat testis and kept in mono- or co-cultures with the conditionally reprogrammed primary adult Sertoli cell line (PASC1) from rat that has been recently generated by our group. Rat monocytes isolated from fresh blood were differentiated into M0 macrophages, and after polarization to M1 or M2 macrophages characterized by gene expression of CXCL11 and TNF-α for M1, or CCL17 and CCL22 for M2. Transmigration of LeukoTracker-labeled M0, M1, and M2 macrophages through mono- and co-cultures of PCs/SCs with and without MG demonstrated that SCs are the main constituent of the TIB in vitro with only a negligible contribution of PCs or MG. Moreover, M2 macrophages showed less migration activity compared to M0 or M1. Treatment of SCs with testosterone (T) showed positive effects on the barrier in contrast to negative effects by interleukin-6 (IL-6) or tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). The new transmigration model is suitable to evaluate transmigration of macrophages through a barrier consisting of testicular cells and can be applied to study the integrity of testicular barriers with respect to immunological aspects.
