Macrophages play an important role in tissue homeostasis, remodeling, immune response, and progression of cancer. Consequently, macrophages exhibit significant plasticity change their transcriptional profile function response to environmental, tissue, inflammatory stimuli resulting pro- anti-tumor effects. Furthermore, the categorization situations remains difficult; however, there is agreement that are predominantly polarized into two different subtypes with anti-inflammatory properties, so-called M1-like M2-like macrophages, respectively. These macrophage classes can be considered as extreme borders a continuum many intermediate subsets. On one end, M1 pro-inflammatory initiate immunological damage integrity, dampen tumor by fostering robust T natural killer (NK) cell anti-tumoral responses. other M2 involved remodeling growth, promote cancer proliferation, invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis participate suppression. decisive roles occur through secretion cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, matrix metalloproteases, well expression checkpoint receptors case macrophages. Moreover, supported from Tumor Microenvironment (TME) relayed nucleus membrane signaling pathways result gene reprogramming thus giving rise polarization outcomes. In this review, we will focus on main activated upon ligand-receptor recognition presence immunomodulatory molecules

Abstract: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a special subtype of cancer, accounting for 10– 20% cancers with high intrinsic heterogeneity. Its unique immune microenvironment, including expression vascular endothelial growth factors, tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), and other molecules that promote the migration cells, has been shown to play dual role in occurrence, growth, metastasis TNBC. Understanding TNBC microenvironment great significance prognosis treatment In this article, we describe composition function cells summarize major cytokine factors chemokines microenvironment. Finally, discuss progress TNBC, cytokine-induced killer cell therapy, checkpoint therapy. Keywords: triple negative immunotherapy

Breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease, at both inter- and intra-tumor levels, this heterogeneity crucial determinant of malignant progression response to treatments. In addition genetic diversity plasticity cells, the tumor microenvironment contributes shaping physical biological surroundings tumor. The activity certain types immune, endothelial or mesenchymal cells in can change effectiveness therapies via plethora different mechanisms. Therefore, deciphering interactions between distinct cell types, their spatial organization specific contribution growth drug sensitivity still major challenge. Dissecting currently an urgent need better define breast biology develop therapeutic strategies targeting as helpful tools for combined personalized treatment. review, we analyze mechanisms by which affects characteristics that ultimately result resistance, outline state art preclinical models emerging technologies will be instrumental unraveling impact on resistance therapies.

Baculoviral inhibitor of apoptosis repeat-containing 5 or BIRC5, member the (IAP), is a multitasking protein and among top 100 deregulated genes in breast cancer patients. It negatively regulates tumor cells by inducing gene expression anti-apoptotic proteins, promoting cell proliferation, modulates response to chemotherapeutics. The main objective study was analyze pattern, prognostic significance functional role BIRC5 (BC). In present study, we utilized bioinformatic approach, pattern BC explore interactions tumorigenicity. mRNA levels were augmented carcinoma & over-expression found associated with poor overall survival (OS) relapse-free (RFS). KEGG pathway ontology analysis indicate that highly enriched mitotic pathways pathways. PPI correlation further revealed showed high oncogenic proteins. Moreover, infiltration myeloid derived suppressor (MDSCs) stroma. Cumulatively, this signifies promotes progression, targeting combination conventional therapies will significantly enhance patients therapy.
