TGF-β type I receptor inhibitor suppresses polarization of tumor-associated macrophages to the M2 phenotype and exerts antitumor effects on colorectal cancer
2023-04-25
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Macrophages can be classified into two main types based on their functions: pro-inflammatory M1-like and anti-inflammatory M2-like. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are macrophages that infiltrate tumor tissues and many TAM polarized to the M2 phenotype. M2-TAMs promote tumor progression through various mechanisms. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β, which is abundant in tumor tissues and...
