MiR-690, an exosomal-derived miRNA from M2-polarized macrophages, improves insulin sensitivity in obese mice

Wei Ying et al.

Summary: Insulin resistance is a significant issue in type 2 diabetes and obesity, while anti-inflammatory M2-like macrophages play a role in maintaining metabolic balance. Research has shown that exosomes secreted by M2 polarized macrophages contain miRNAs that can improve glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in obese mice. MiR-690, found in abundance in these exosomes, acts as an insulin sensitizer both in vivo and in vitro, suggesting it could be a potential therapeutic agent for metabolic diseases.

Therapeutic targeting with DABIL-4 depletes myeloid suppressor cells in 4T1 triple-negative breast cancer model

Sadiya Parveen et al.

Summary: Selective depletion of IL-4R-bearing cells in TNBC using DABIL-4 led to direct killing of tumor cells and depletion of immunosuppressive cells, resulting in an enhanced antitumor response. The immunotherapeutic function of DABIL-4 is likely mediated through the depletion of MDSCs, TAMs, and regulatory T cells in the tumor microenvironment.

Ceramides and sphingosine-1-phosphate mediate the distinct effects of M1/M2-macrophage infusion on liver recovery after hepatectomy

Hang Sun et al.

Summary: The study identifies ceramide (CER) and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) as critical lipid mediators for M1- and M2-polarized BMDMs to promote injury and regeneration in the liver post-hepatectomy.

Targeting macrophages in cancer immunotherapy

Zhaojun Duan et al.

Summary: Immunotherapy is considered the most promising treatment for cancers, with various strategies such as adoptive cellular immunotherapy, tumor vaccines, antibodies, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and small-molecule inhibitors showing success. The review highlights the role of macrophages in current immunotherapies and the potential benefits of targeting them, suggesting that therapeutic strategies involving macrophages have the potential to enhance the efficacy of cancer treatments.
