Tumor macrophage functional heterogeneity can inform the development of novel cancer therapies
Trends Immunol. 2023 Dec;44(12):971-985. doi: 10.1016/j.it.2023.10.007.ABSTRACTMacrophages represent a key component of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and are largely associated with poor prognosis. Therapeutic targeting of macrophages has historically focused on inhibiting their recruitment or reprogramming their phenotype from a protumor (M2-like) to an antitumor (M1-like) one. Unfortunately, this approach has not provided clinical breakthroughs that have changed practice. Emerging studies utilizing single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics have improved our understanding of the ontogeny, pheno...

Homeostatic chemokines as putative therapeutic targets in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Trends Immunol. 2023 Dec;44(12):1014-1030. doi: 10.1016/j.it.2023.10.003. Epub 2023 Nov 9.ABSTRACTIdiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal chronic interstitial lung disease (ILD) that affects lung mechanical functions and gas exchange. IPF is caused by increased fibroblast activity and collagen deposition that compromise the alveolar-capillary barrier. Identifying an effective therapy for IPF remains a clinical challenge. Chemokines are key proteins in cell communication that have functions in immunity as well as in tissue homeostasis, damage, and repair. Chemokine receptor signaling induces the activation and prolif...
