Macrophages are key players in controlling the immune response that can adapt to microenvironmental signals. This results in distinct polarization states (classical M1 or alternative M2), that play a differential role in immune regulation. In general, the M1 contribute to onset of inflammation, whereas the M2 orchestrate resolution and repair, whereby failure to switch from predominantly M1 to M2 reinforces a pro-inflammatory environment and chronic inflammation. Here, we show selective elimination of M1 macrophages in vitro by a range of CD64-targeted immunotoxins, including H22(scFv)-ETA'. After re-polarization of already polarized macrophages, still only M1 polarization showed sensitivity toward CD64-directed immunotoxins. The selectivity for M1 was found linked to reduced endosomal protease activity in M1 macrophages as demonstrated by inhibition of endosomal proteases. Using the H22(scFv)-ETA' in a transgenic mouse model for chronic cutaneous inflammation, the M1 specificity was confirmed in vivo and a beneficial effect on inflammation demonstrated. Also ex vivo on skin biopsies from atopic dermatitis and diabetes type II patients with chronically-inflamed skin, a clear M1 specific effect was found. This indicates the potential relevance for human application. Our data show that targeting M1 macrophages through CD64 can be instrumental in developing novel intervention strategies for chronic inflammatory conditions.
