Tumor Cells and Tumor-Associated Macrophages: Secreted Proteins as Potential Targets for Therapy by Marc Baay, Anja Brouwer, Patrick Pauwels, Marc Peeters, Filip Lardon

“…Inflammatory pathways, meant to defend the organism against infection and injury, as a byproduct, can promote an environment which favors tumor growth and metastasis. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), which constitute a significant part of the tumor-infiltrating immune cells, have been linked to the growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis of a variety of cancers, most likely through polarization of TAMs to the M2 (alternative) phenotype. …”
