TAMs inhibit immuno-stimulatory signals and are implicated in the initiation and progression of the tumor, through the secretion of signaling molecules, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), interleukins or chemokines (IL-10, IL-6, and CXCL-8) [49]. The gene discussed is VEGFA; the disease is neoplasm.
