CSF1R and acute myeloid leukemia: We previously showed that interactions of AML blasts with bone marrow macrophages (MΦ) shift their polarization towards a protumoral (M2-like) phenotype, promoting drug resistance; we demonstrated that inhibiting the colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF1R) repolarizes MΦ towards an antitumoral (M1-like) phenotype and that other factors may be involved.
