A high density of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) is associated with poorer prognosis and survival in breast cancer patients. Recent studies have shown that lipid accumulation in TAMs can promote ...
These lipid-laden macrophages cause immunosuppression ... Inhibiting the protein CD36 with sulfosuccinimidyl oleate (SSO) prevented the uptake of myelin debris, whereas blockade of the lipid ...
Further, these macrophages demonstrate heightened mitochondrial mass and function ... Overall, these studies have underscored the potential of targeting CD36-mediated metabolic adaptations in immune ...
