Macrophages drive key immune processes including inflammation, tissue repair, and tumorigenesis via distinct polarization states whose accurate identification is vital for diagnosis and immunotherapy.

-- Laboratory of Prof. Massimiliano Pagani at IFOM (the AIRC Institute of Molecular Oncology) and Macomics to bring together expertise on T-cell biology, ex-vivo tumoroids and macrophages -- The ...

Macrophages are central to mechanobiology research: their physical characteristics-stiffness, adhesion, and ECM (extracellular matrix) sensing-are inextricably linked to their phenotypic polarization ...
