Abstract:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), such as PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies, modulate the cancer killing function of immune cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME). However, immunosuppressive M2-type tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are abundant in bladder cancer (BC) and able to release substances such as cytokines to promote tumor growth, evade immune cell attack and lead to tumor ICIs treatment resistance. In the present study, we utilized nanovesicles derived from M1 macrophages, which contained constituents o… Show more
