Mouse WISP-1 (Wnt-induced secreted protein-1; also named CNN4) is a 40 kDa, secreted, heparin-binding glycoprotein that is a member of the CCN (or CTGF/Cyr61/Nov) cysteine-rich protein family (1- 6). It is synthesized as a 367 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains a series of structural homology modules. Following a 22 aa signal sequence, there is a 68 aa IGFBP-like domain (aa 53-120), a 66 aa von Willebrand factor type C (VWC) module (aa 121-186), a 41 aa TSP type I domain (aa 220-260) and a 75 aa, C-terminal cysteine knot motif (aa 273-347) (1, 6). The VWC module is associated with protein-protein interaction, the TSP domain binds sulfated glycoconjugates, and the cysteine knot mediates dimerization and receptor binding (4). It is likely that WISP-1 normally circulates as an 80 kDa homodimer (2). Multiple splice forms are reported for human WISP-1, but none for rodent (7-9). Mature mouse WISP-1 is 98%, 84%, and 85% aa identical to rat, canine, and human WISP-1, respectively. WISP-1 is expressed by fibroblasts and osteoblasts, and may contribute to fracture healing by promoting bone cell formation (1, 10, 11).

Detection of WISP-1/CCN4 by Flow Cytometry
Recombinant WISP-1 reduces M2 macrophage survival, induces apoptosis, and promotes reprogramming toward an M1-like phenotype. (a) Cell viability assay of THP-1-derived M1 (M1) and M2 macrophages (M2) treated with 20-100 ng/ml mouse (rWISP-1) or human WISP-1 (hrWISP-1) for 3 days. (b) Left: Flow cytometry analysis after Annexin V-FICT/PI dual staining was employed to evaluate the apoptosis of THP-1- derived M1 and M2 macrophages after treatment with hrWISP- (20-100 ng/ml) for 3 days. Right: Apoptotic cells were quantified as the sum of the percentages of early and late stages of apoptosis. (c) qRT-PCR analysis of relative mRNA levels of M1 (Nos2, MhcII, and Il12p40) and M2 (Tgf beta 1, Il10, and Il4) markers in M2 macrophages treated with 20-100 ng/ml hrWISP-1 for 3 days. (d) ELISA of TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta, IL-4, and IL-13 in the culture supernatant of M2 macrophages treated with 20-100 ng/ml hrWISP-1 for 3 days. (e) Flow cytometry analysis of the population of CD80+ and CD206+ cells among M2 macrophages after treatment with hrWISP-1 (20-100 ng/ml) for 2 or 3 days. Mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) values (right). (f) Heatmap showing differentially expressed macrophage polarization-related genes in THP-1-derived M2 macrophages (left). Red: high expression; blue: low expression. Relative expression of selected genes from PCR array profiling of macrophage polarization markers (right). Log2 fold-change values (hrWISP-1 vs. Vehicle). THP-1-derived M2 macrophages were treated with hrWISP-1 (50 ng/ml) for 3 days. NS: not significant; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, two-tailed Student's t-test. The data are from one experiment representative of three independent experiments with similar results (b, e, and f left) or from three independent experiments (mean ± standard error: a, c, d; b, e and f right).
