TGFB1 and neoplasm: M1 macrophages may be less detrimental to cancer prognosis, as they are more associated with phagocytosis and antitumor inflammation reactions, while M2 macrophages exhibit immunosuppressive, tumor-promoting activities by secreting different molecules, including IL-10, TGF-β, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2, due to the overactivation of cyclo-oxygenase II or COX-II enzyme) (Figure 3) [130,133].
