TGF-β also enhances the pro-tumoral immune response by promoting the function of regulatory T cells (Tregs) (which also secrete TGF-β), facilitating the conversion of normal fibroblasts into cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), and polarizing macrophages and neutrophils to an M2/N2 (i.e., ...
The proteolytic degradation of these antibodies is counterbalanced when drugs bind to neonatal Fc receptors, which have a structure similar to that of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules and are found on a number of cells including antigen-presenting dendritic cells, neutrophils, and ...

GM-CSF has been reported to initiate the proliferation, differentiation and activation of macrophages, neutrophils, various antigen presentation cells, and to some degree, T cells, in addition to several direct immune-stimulatory functions. Clearly, these properties make GM-CSF a potent adjuvant. In...
