Abstract excerpt

Macrophages are polarized into two functionally distinct forms, M1 and M2, in response to different microenvironment. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) generally have M2 phenotype and promote tumor progression. Few studies to date have described the infiltration of M2-polarized macrophages in ovarian cancer. We used two macrophages markers, CD68 and CD163, to analyze the expression of TAMs and to clarify the...
