The mechanisms underlying stromal cell supportive functions are incompletely understood but probably implicate a mixture of cytokines, matrix components and cell adhesion molecules. Skeletal muscle uses recruited macrophages to support post-injury regeneration. We and others have previously shown that macrophages secrete mitogenic factors for myogenic cells. Here, we focused on macrophage-elicited survival signals. We demonstrated that: (1) macrophage influx is temporally correlated with the disappearance of TUNEL-positive apoptotic myogenic cells during post-injury muscle regeneration in mice; (2) direct cell-cell contacts between human macrophages and myogenic cells rescue myogenic cells from apoptosis, as assessed by decreased annexin V labelling and caspase-3 activity, and by increased DIOC-6 staining, Bcl-2 expression and phosphorylation of Akt and ERK1/2 survival pathways; (3) four pro-survival cell-cell adhesion molecular systems detected by DNA macroarray are expressed by macrophages and myogenic cells in vitro and in vivo - VCAM-1-VLA-4, ICAM-1-LFA-1, PECAM-1-PECAM-1 and CX3CL1-CX3CR1; (4) macrophages deliver anti-apoptotic signals through all four adhesion systems, as assessed by functional analyses with blocking antibodies; and (5) macrophages more strongly rescue differentiated myotubes, which must achieve adhesion-induced stabilisation of their structure to survive. Macrophages could secure these cells until they establish final association with the matrix.
