Transcriptional activation of ALOX5 by c-Myc drives malignant progression and M2 macrophage polarization in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

It is suggested that the c-Myc-ALOX5 pathway promotes ccRCC progression by enhancing tumor cell aggressiveness and M2 macrophage polarization, offering a potential therapeutic target for immune microenvironment modulation in renal cancer.

The effect and mechanism of TIPE in promoting M2 polarization through DcR3 in the microenvironment of colorectal cancer

Elevated expression of tumor necrosis factor α-induced protein 8 (TIPE) is observed in colorectal cancer (CRC) and is known to regulate decoy receptor 3 (DcR3) expression while promoting M2 polarization of macrophages. However, the precise role of DcR3 in macrophage M2 polarization remains to be elucidated. We employed...

NCAPD3 induces M2 polarization of peripheral macrophages in lung adenocarcinoma by promoting the binding of E2F1 to the FOXM1 promoter region.

Serving as a highly prevalent malignant tumor, lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is frequently associated with the establishment of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment during its initiation and progression, where M2-polarized macrophages exert pivotal effects. NCAPD3 acts as an oncogenic driver in multiple tumors; how...

Research progress of SPP1 in cancer regulation: Tumorigenesis, metastasis, tumor microenvironment, immunity and therapeutic targets (Review).

Secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1, also known as osteopontin, OPN) is a multifunctional matricellular glycoprotein that is aberrantly overexpressed in nearly all major human malignancies. It functions as a central signaling hub that drives tumor initiation, sustains cancer stemness, accelerates invasion and metastasis, r...

LncRNA FGD5-AS1 promotes M2 polarization of tumor-associated macrophages to facilitate the malignant phenotype of non-small cell lung cancer cells

Background Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) take up a high proportion among immune cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME), and their M2- polarized phenotype has been implicated in promoting non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) development. Long non-coding RNA FGD5-AS1 (FGD5-AS1) is up-regulated within multiple tumo...
