The mechanisms whereby obesity differentially affects males and females are unclear. Since macrophages are functionally the most important cells in obesity-induced inflammation, we sought to determine reasons for male-specific propensity in macrophage migration. Whereas we previously determined that male mice fed high fat diet (HFD) exhibit macrophage infiltration into the hypothalamus, while females were protected irrespective of ovarian estrogen, here we show that males accumulate more macrophages in adipose tissues that are also more inflammatory. Using bone marrow cells or macrophages, differentiated in vitro, from male and female mice fed control and HFD, we demonstrated that macrophages derived from male mice are intrinsically more migratory. We determined that males have higher levels of leptin in serum and adipose tissue. Serum CCL2 levels, however, are the same in males and females, although increased in obese mice compared to lean mice of both sexes. Leptin receptor and free fatty acid receptor, GPR120, are upregulated only in macrophages derived from male mice, when cultured in the presence of free fatty acids (FFA) to mimic hyperlipidemia of obesity. Unless previously stimulated with LPS, CCL2 did not cause migration of macrophages. Leptin, however, elicited migration of macrophages from both sexes. Macrophages from male mice maintained migratory capacity when cultured with FFA, while female macrophages failed to migrate. Therefore, both hyperlipidemia and hyperleptinemia contribute to male macrophage specific migration, since increased FFA induce leptin receptors, while higher leptin causes migration. Our results may explain sex differences in obesity-mediated disorders caused by macrophages infiltration.
