While chemotherapy strongly restricts or reverses tumor growth, the response of host tissue to therapy can counteract its anti-tumor activity by promoting tumor re-growth and/or metastases, thus limiting therapeutic efficacy. Here, we show that vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 3 (VEGFR3)-expressing macrophages infiltrating chemotherapy-treated tumors play a significant role in metastasis. They do so in part by inducing lymphangiogenesis as a result of cathepsin release, leading to VEGF-C upregulation by heparanase. We found that macrophages from chemotherapy-treated mice are sufficient to trigger lymphatic vessel activity and structure in naive tumors in a VEGFR3-dependent manner. Blocking VEGF-C/VEGFR3 axis inhibits the activity of chemotherapy-educated macrophages, leading to reduced lymphangiogenesis in treated tumors. Overall, our results suggest that disrupting the VEGF-C/VEGFR3 axis not only directly inhibits lymphangiogenesis but also blocks the pro-metastatic activity of macrophages in chemotherapy-treated mice. Chemotherapy promotes macrophage colonization of tumors Macrophages induce lymphangiogenesis in chemotherapy-treated tumors Macrophages secrete cathepsins, VEGF-C, and heparanase in a VEGFR3-dependent manner Blocking VEGFR3 in macrophages inhibits lymphangiogenesis and subsequent metastasis Alishekevitz et al. now find that macrophages expressing VEGFR3 home in large numbers to chemotherapy-treated tumors. At the treated tumor site, macrophages promote lymphangiogenesis and subsequent metastasis via the VEGF-C/VEGFR3 axis. Blocking VEGFR3 in treated tumors hinders metastasis through the inhibition of pro-metastatic macrophage activity.
