Tumor Associated Macrophages in Solid Tumor: Friend or Foe

Posted On 2020-08-06 09:32:07


The focused series aims to highlight the current status of TAMs research in context to solid tumors in a preclinical and clinical setting. We have invited distinguished scientists from the different onco- immunology field for this focused series. I hope, the reviews will help the reader to understand in detail macrophages topographical and temporal heterogeneity and functional diversity in different tumor types.
