Abstract:The biology centered around the TGF-β type I receptor ALK1 (encoded byACVRL1)has been almost exclusively based on its reported endothelial expression pattern since its first functional characterization more than two decades ago. Here, in efforts to better define the therapeutic context in which to use ALK1 inhibitors, we uncover a population of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) that, by virtue of their unanticipatedAcvrl1expression, are effector targets for adjuvant anti-angiogenic immunotherapy in mouse mod… Show more
