Specialization determines outcomes in inflammation and cancer

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The functional heterogeneity of macrophages has ontological and microenvironmental bases, and differentially affects pathology. In pancreatitis, tissue-resident macrophages promote protective fibrosis that favors the maintenance of pancreatic homeostasis. In pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, they promote tumor progression by facilitating stromal desmoplasia.
