High-throughput phenotypic screen and transcriptional analysis identify new compounds and targets for macrophage reprogramming.

Abstract excerpt

Macrophages are plastic and, in response to different local stimuli, can polarize toward multi-dimensional spectrum of phenotypes, including the pro-inflammatory M1-like and the anti-inflammatory M2-like states. Using a high-throughput phenotypic screen in a library of ~4000 FDA-approved drugs, bioactive compounds and natural products, we find ~300 compounds that potently activate primary human macrophages toward...
