Cancer-associated hypersialylated MUC1 drives the differentiation of monocytes into macrophages with a pathogenic phenotype
2020-05-08
Abstract excerpt
The tumour microenvironment plays a crucial role in the growth and progression of cancer and the presence of tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) is associated with poor prognosis. Recent studies show that TAMs show transcriptomic, phenotypic, functional and geographical diversity. Here we show that a sialylated tumour-associated glycoform of the mucin MUC1, MUC1-ST, through the engagement of Siglec-9 can specific...
