Abstract
The paper 'A C-Terminal Fragment of Adhesion Protein Fibulin-7 Inhibits Growth of Murine Breast Tumor by Regulating Macrophage Reprogramming' by Chakraborty et al. highlights that Fbln7-C could be explored as a potential immunomodulatory agent against various solid cancers and have shown its abilities to regulate tumor microenvironment reprogramming of TAMs in a breast cancer model. Fbln7, which is a secreted glycoprotein, has been shown to be anti-angiogenic and has an immunomodulatory role regulating various functional properties of monocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils, thereby influencing inflammation. In this study, the authors have shown that in a murine breast tumor model, intravenous administration of Fbln7-C significantly reduces the size of tumors via macrophage reprogramming.
