Background: Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) with dysregulated inflammatory phenotypes play a key role in carcinogenesis. In thyroid carcinoma (TC), excessive release of proinflammatory cytokines decreases the expression of sodium-iodine transporter and inflammation potentiates tumor progression.Aim: To assess the impact of TC cells on the functional reprograming of TC-induced macrophages at the level of transcriptome and metabolic pathways, and asses...
