Abstract EN
Cervical cancer is the most common gynecological tumor worldwide.
Persistent infection of high-risk HPV-induced smouldering inflammation is considered to be an important risk factor for cervical cancer.
The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays an important role in the progress of the tumor occurrence, development, and prognosis of cervical cancer.
Macrophages are the main contributor to the TME, which is called tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs).
During the inflammatory response, the phenotype and function of TAMs are constantly changing, which are involved in different regulatory networks.
The phenotype of TAMs is related to the metabolism and secretory factors release, which facilitate the angiogenesis and lymphatic duct formation during cervical cancer metastasis, thus affecting the prognosis of cervical cancer.
This review intends to discuss the recent research progress on the relationship between TAMs and cervical cancer, which is helpful to elucidate the mechanism of TAMs in cervical cancer.
