Tumor-Associated Macrophages: Protumoral Macrophages in Inflammatory Tumor Microenvironment
Tumor microenvironment consists of malignant and non-malignant cells. The interaction of these dynamic and different cells is responsible for tumor progression at different levels. The non-malignant cells in TME contain cells such as tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), cancer associated fibroblasts...
