Defining and targeting tumor-associated macrophages in malignant mesothelioma
Defining the ontogeny of tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) is important to develop therapeutic targets for mesothelioma. We identified two distinct macrophage populations in mouse peritoneal and pleural cavities, the monocyte-derived, small peritoneal/ple ...
NATL ACAD SCIENCES2023In situ quantification of osmotic pressure within living embryonic tissues
Sangwoo Kim, Antoine Claude Jean Vian
Mechanics is known to play a fundamental role in many cellular and developmental processes. Beyond active forces and material properties, osmotic pressure is believed to control essential cell and tissue characteristics. However, it remains very challengin ...
2023Involvement of the M-CSF/IL-34/CSF-1R pathway in malignant pleural mesothelioma
Background Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare and aggressive cancer related to asbestos exposure. The tumor microenvironment content, particularly the presence of macrophages, was described as crucial for the development of the disease. This wo ...
