Repolarization of glioblastoma macrophage cells using non-agonistic Dectin-1 ligand encapsulating TLR-9 agonist: plausible role in regenerative medicine against brain tumor

Abstract

The findings indicate towards potentiality of repolarizing the M2 macrophages to much desired M1 phase by inducing higgh levels of oxidative burst and inflammatory cytokines. Consequently, the apoptosis was induced in glioblastoma cells establishing the suitablity of CpG ODN carrying nanoformulations as emerging therapeutic intervention for GBM.
