SPON2 facilitates osteosarcoma development by inducing M2 macrophage polarization through activation of the NF-κB/VEGF signaling axis

Abstract Osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive bone tumor with poor prognosis, particularly in metastatic cases. Here, we identify spondin 2 (SPON2) as a key driver of OS progression. SPON2 is significantly upregulated in OS tissues and cell lines and correlates with shorter patient survival. Functiona...
