АBSTRACT: With increasing incidence and geography, cancer is one of the leading causes death, reduced quality life disability worldwide. Principal progress in development new anticancer therapies, improving efficiency immunotherapeutic tools, personification conventional therapies needs to consider cancer-specific patient-specific programming innate immunity. Intratumoral TAMs their precursors, resident macrophages monocytes, are principal regulators tumor progression therapy resistance. Our review summarizes accumulated evidence for subpopulations number biomarkers, indicating predictive value clinical parameters carcinogenesis resistance, with a focus on solid cancers non-infectious etiology. We present state-of-the-art knowledge about tumor-supporting functions at all stages highlight recently identified by single-cell spatial analytical methods, that discriminate between tumor-promoting tumor-inhibiting TAMs, where both subtypes express combination prototype M1 M2 genes. focuses novel mechanisms involved crosstalk among epigenetic, signaling, transcriptional metabolic pathways TAMs. Particular attention has been given link cell metabolism epigenetic histone lactylation, which can be responsible unlimited protumoral Finally, we explain how interfere currently used therapeutics summarize most advanced data from trials, divide into four categories: inhibition TAM survival differentiation, monocyte/TAM recruitment tumors, functional reprogramming genetic enhancement macrophages.

Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor macrophage (CAR-MΦ) represents a significant advancement in immunotherapy, especially for treating solid tumors where traditional CAR-T therapies face limitations. CAR-MΦ offers promising approach to target and eradicate tumor cells by utilizing macrophages’ phagocytic antigen-presenting abilities. However, challenges such as the complex microenvironment (TME), variability expression, immune suppression limit their efficacy. This review addresses these issues, exploring mechanisms of action, optimal construct designs, interactions within TME. It also delves into ex vivo manufacturing CAR-MΦ, discussing autologous allogeneic sources importance stringent quality control. The potential synergies integrating with existing cancer like checkpoint inhibitors conventional chemotherapeutics are examined highlight possible enhanced treatment outcomes. Furthermore, regulatory pathways scrutinized alongside established protocols cells, identifying unique considerations essential clinical trials market approval. Proposed safety monitoring frameworks aim manage adverse events, cytokine release syndrome, crucial patient safety. Consolidating current research insights, this seeks refine therapeutic applications, overcome barriers, suggest future directions transition from experimental platforms standard care options.

Abstract In the last two decades, novel and promising cell-based therapies have populated treatment landscape for haematological tumors. However, commonly exploited T NK show limited applicability to solid This is mainly given by impaired tumor trafficking capability effector activity of these cells within a highly immunosuppressive microenvironment. Myeloid spontaneously home tumors can thus be reprogrammed and/or engineered directly attack or locally selectively deliver therapeutically relevant payloads that may improve efficacy immunotherapy against difficult-to-access context myeloid therapies, adoptive transfer monocytes has often been overshadowed infusion differentiated macrophages hematopoietic stem cell transplantation despite their therapeutic potential.

Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) technology has revolutionized cellular immunotherapy, particularly with the success of CAR-T cells in treating hematologic malignancies. However, have limited efficacy against solid tumors. To address these limitations, CAR-macrophages (CAR-Ms) leverage innate properties macrophages specificity and potency CAR technology, offering a novel promising approach to cancer immunotherapy. Preclinical studies shown that CAR-Ms can effectively target destroy tumor cells, even within challenging microenvironments, by exhibiting direct cytotoxicity enhancing recruitment activation other immune cells. Additionally, favorable safety profile their persistence tumors position as potentially safer more durable therapeutic options compared This review explores recent advancements including engineering strategies optimize anti-tumor preclinical evidence supporting use. We also discuss challenges future directions developing therapies, emphasizing potential revolutionize By harnessing unique macrophages, offer groundbreaking overcoming current limitations cell paving way for effective sustainable treatments.
