Abstract excerpt
Glioblastoma multiforme is characterized by high accumulation of microglia/macrophages. The function of these tumor-infiltrating myeloid cells is not sufficiently elucidated. Therefore, a better understanding of the precise immune cell composition and function in brain tumors is required. In rodent glioma models, two different myeloid cell populations exist, determined by the expression level of CD45, namely...
