Abstract excerpt
The immune system is a pivotal player in determining tumor fate, contributing to the immunosuppressive microenvironment that supports tumor progression. Considering the emergence of biomaterials as promising platforms to mimic the tumor microenvironment, human platelet lysate (PLMA)-based hydrogel beads are proposed as 3D platforms to recapitulate the tumor milieu and recreate the synergistic tumor-macrophage...
