Abstract
Macrophages are important innate immune cells with the ability to adapt their phenotype to environmental cues. Research on human macrophages often uses monocyte-derived macrophages cultured in vitro, but it is unclear if culture medium affects macrophage phenotype. The objective of this study was to determine the impact of culture medium composition on monocyte-derived macrophage phenotype. Monocyte-derived macrophages were generated in different formulations of culture media (RPMI 1640, DMEM, MEM, McCoy's 5a and IMDM). Viability, yield and cell size were monitored, and RT-qPCR, flow cytometry or ELISA was used to compare levels of phenotype markers (CD163, CD206, CD80, TNFα, IL-10, SIRPα, LILRB1 and Siglec-10). Yield, cell size, gene expression, membrane protein levels and release of soluble proteins were all affected by changes in culture medium composition. The most pronounced effects were observed after culture in DMEM, which lacks the non-essential amino acids asparagine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid and proline. Supplementation of DMEM with non-essential amino acids either fully or partly reversed most effects of DMEM on macrophage phenotype. The results suggest culture medium composition and amino acid availability affect the phenotype of human monocyte-derived macrophages cultured in vitro.

Abstract
The technological and economic benefits of engineered nanomaterials may be offset by their adverse effects on living organisms. One of the highly produced nanomaterials under such scrutiny is amorphous silica nanoparticles, which are known to have an appreciable, although reversible, inflammatory potential. This is due to their selective toxicity toward macrophages, and it is thus important to study the cellular responses of this cell type to silica nanoparticles to better understand the direct or indirect adverse effects of nanosilica. We have here studied the responses of the RAW264.7 murine macrophage cells and of the control MPC11 plasma cells to subtoxic concentrations of nanosilica, using a combination of proteomic and targeted approaches. This allowed us to document alterations in the cellular cytoskeleton, in the phagocytic capacity of the cells as well as their ability to respond to bacterial stimuli. More surprisingly, silica nanoparticles also induce a greater sensitivity of macrophages to DNA alkylating agents, such as styrene oxide, even at doses which do not induce any appreciable cell death.
