Details In the present study, we searched for natural compounds that regulate the CD169-positive phenotype in macrophages to identify potential new anti-cancer agents targeting macrophage activation. Among 50 natural compounds, aculeatiside A, naringin, and onionin A significantly induced the CD169-positive phenotype in human monocyte-derived macrophages. These compounds also induced CD169 overexpression and secretion of inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-12, in murine macrophages. Subcutaneous injection of aculeatiside A and naringin enhanced mRNA expression of IL-1β, IL12, and CD169 in regional lymph nodes in mice. These findings suggest aculeatiside A and naringin may enhance anti-tumor immune responses by inducing CD169-positive macrophages in lymph nodes.
