Description
Kuźnicki and co-authors review how macrophages, a type of immune cell, might be turned against cancer, in a review paper from 2024. Macrophages that gather in tumors can help or hinder growth, and the mix of their subtypes links to patient survival. The review sets out their traits and roles in tumor growth.
The authors explain how these cells affect the main treatments: immune therapy, radiation, and chemotherapy. New ideas include tiny particles that carry drugs to the cells and reshape the tumor setting. Lab-made receptor macrophages, called CAR-Ms, show early promise. The review also covers training the cells with magnetic fields, plasma, and electric pulses. It closes with prospects for pairing these cell-based plans with other care.
