How will our increasingly deep understanding of diverse immune archetypes in cancers guide our search for cures?

This perspective describes a future in which we discover drugs based on transitions of tissue/immunobiology through intermediate states, to health. authors.elsevier.com/a/1llig5TA51...
Conceptualization of drugs, akin to chemical catalysts that promote sequential transitions in tissues

Many tx studies (Mujal... Azizi…)failed to validate M1/M2 signatures in vivo. Many also suspected that calling cells bearing ‘prototypical M2’ genes ‘‘immunosuppressive’ was simplistic + incorrect. Nonetheless many (us too!) leaned on the simplification. Arja addresses the reality head on…thnx JEM
Over 12,000 publications simplified macrophage diversity as’M2-like’in about the past ~18 months (we once did so too!)

Are so-called 'M2-like' CD206+ macrophages immunosuppressive? On the contrary, we find that they are critical for T cell mediated anti-tumor immunity. Arja Ray drove this study with help from Ken Hu, Kelly Kersten, Alexis Combes and others
