Macrophages are a key component of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Blocking Clever-1, a molecule expressed in M2-like macrophages, unleashed macrophage and T-cell-mediated antitumor immunity. Myeloid checkpoints including Clever-1 hold promise as alternative or complementary immunotherapy strategies..
巨噬细胞是肿瘤微环境(TME)的关键组成部分。阻断在 M2 样巨噬细胞中表达的分子 Clever-1,可释放巨噬细胞和 T 细胞介导的抗肿瘤免疫。包括 Clever-1 在内的髓系检查点有望成为替代或补充免疫治疗策略。
