Reprogramming tumor-associated macrophages in DMG/DIPG: emerging molecular and biophysical strategies.
Emerging strategies to reprogram tumor-suppressing immune cells could improve treatment of devastating pediatric brain tumors.
This review explores strategies to reprogram tumor-associated macrophages in diffuse midline glioma/DIPG, a devastating pediatric brain tumor. It covers emerging molecular and physical approaches to modify the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment.
