| Abstract | Advancement in cancer research has shown that the tumor microenvironment plays a crucial role in the installation, progression, and dissemination of cancer cells. Among the heterogeneous panel of cells within the malignant microenvironment are tumor-associated macrophages that are sustaining the malignant cells through strict feedback mechanisms and spatial distribution. Considering that the presence of metastasis is one of the main feature associated with decreased survival rates among patients, in the present article we briefly present the involvement of tumor-associated macrophages in the hallmarks of metastasis and their microRNA-related regulation with a focus on lung cancer in order to coordinate the vast information under one pathology. As shown, these cells have emerged as coordinators of immunosuppression, angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis, vessel intravasation and extravasation of cancer cells, and premetastatic niche formation, transforming the macrophages in potential therapeutic targets and also prognostic markers according to their density within the tumor and polarization phenotype. An indirect therapeutic approach on tumor-associated macrophages can be also represented by regulation of microRNAs involved in their polarization and implicit oncogenic features. Examples of these microRNAs consist in the highly studied miR-21 and miR-155, but also other microRNA with less feedback in the literature: miR-1207-5p, miR-193b, miR-320a, and others. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
