Grant Activity:
Targeting recruitment of myeloid cells to the immune tumour microenvironment
Purpose:
While immune cells generally fight disease, certain types can also aid tumour growth by promoting blood vessel growth and tumour spread, or inhibiting anti-tumour immune responses. We have detected a protein called EphA3, which guides cell migration, particularly on these tumour associated cells, but is not on normal tissues. We are studying effects of reducing EphA3 levels, or using novel drugs against EphA3, on abundance of these tumour-associated immune cell types and on tumour growth.
