Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Alveolar macrophages (AMs) are critical in the development of lung adenocarcinoma driven by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. Whether interstitial macrophages (IMs) are also involved in lung tumorigenesis is still unclear. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the role of both AM and IM in the development of EGFR mutant driven lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS: We used the EGFR...
