After HSV-1 infection, macrophages infiltrate early into the cornea, where they play an important role in HSV-1 infection. Macrophages are divided into M1 or M2 groups based on their activation. M1 macrophages are pro-inflammatory, while M2 macrophages are anti-inflammatory. Macrophage phenotypes can shift between M1 or M2 in vitro and in vivo following treatment with specific cytokines. In this study we looked at the effect of M2 macrophages on HSV-1 infectivity using mice either lacking M2 (M2-/-) or overexpressing M2 (M2-OE) macrophages. While presence or absence of M2 macrophages had no effect on eye disease, we found that over expression of M2 macrophages was associated with increased phagocytosis, increased primary virus replication, increased latency, and increased expression of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. In contrast, in mice lacking M2 macrophages following infection phagocytosis, replication, latency, and cytokine expression were similar to wild type mice. Our results suggest that enhanced M2 responses lead to higher phagocytosis, which affected both primary and latent infection but not reactivation. Macrophages are one of the major infiltrates into the cornea of ocularly infected mice and may contribute to both disease and protection. Similar to TH1/TH2 T cells, macrophages also are divided into M1/M2 subtypes. However, very little is known about the role, if any, that M1/M2 macrophages play in HSV-1 primary and latent infection. Here we investigated the role of M1/M2 macrophages in HSV-1 latency-reactivation by generating M2-/- mice as well as conditional transgenic mice that overexpress M2 macrophages. We found that higher expression of M2 macrophages correlated with higher phagocytosis, higher primary virus replication and latency, and higher IL-4 and IFN-γ expression, while the absence of M2 macrophages did not significantly alter HSV-1 infectivity compared with wild type mice. Thus, maintaining a balanced proportion of M1/M2 macrophage phenotype may be an effective way to control both primary and latent infection.
