Monocytes
In Human
Cancer
Monocytes are part of the myeloid family, a group of hematopoietic derived cells.

Function of monocytes
Origins of monocytes and macrophages
-In the steady-state, monocyte-derived macrophages (Mo-MΦ) and DCs (Mo-DCs).
-Under inflammatory conditions, inflammatory macrophages and monocyte-derived DCs.
-In presence of tumors, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and monocytic MDSCs (M-MDSCs) David M. Richards et al.2012
Monocytes-Macrophages are the dominant leukocyte population found in the tumor microenvironment. (Biswas and Mantovani, 2010).
They represent up to 50% of the tumor mass, certainly operate as fundamental actors. Solinas et al 2009. Tumor-
associated macrophages (TAM) as major players of the cancer-related inflammation
M-MQ can be divided into two main classes
M1 macrophages (classically activated cells)
M2 (alternatively activated) or TAM A. Mantovani et al

An important inflammatory cell type commonly found in the stroma of tumor is the tumor- associated macrophage (TAM2) Murphy JF (2014) Modulation of Angiogenesis by Tumor Associated Macrophages in the Tumor Microenvironment. MOJ Immunol 1(3): 00016.

The role of TAMs in tumor growth, invasion and metastasis:
cancer cell metastasis.TAMs derived protease, such as matrix
metalloproteinases, urokinase-type plasminogen activator, and cathespin B can promote cancer cell metastasis. Murphy JF (2014) Modulation of
Angiogenesis by Tumor Associated Macrophages in the Tumor Microenvironment. MOJ Immunol 1(3): 00016.
TAMs promote cancer metastasis through several mechanisms, including
(1) promotion of angiogenesis (2) induction of tumor growth(3) enhancement of tumor cell migration and
invasion.
Tumor angiogenesisBy interacting with cancer cells, TAMs
can be induced to express more cytokines and tissue matrix-degrading enzymes, such as matrix metalloproteinases, plasminogen activators and cathepsin B, that are either direct angiogenic factors or tissue matrix modulators responsible for promoting tumor angiogenesis
TAMs and matrix degrading enzymes
TAMs produce several enzymes which can degrade the extracellular matrix (ECM). Such enzymes include several metalloproteinases (e.g., MMP-2 and MMP-9) as well as urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) that degrade the ECM . Dissolution of the ECM leads to cleavages through which tumor cells can evade and metastasize. ELIAS OBEID et al. Int J Oncol. Jul 2013; 43(1): 5–12.
TAM infiltrates tumor spreading via induction of tumor angiogenesis and tumor cell invasion
Hypoxia in tumor leads to produce many factors
This factor :-differentiate blood monocytes into
macrophage TAMs and then recruited into tumor areas.
TAM respond to factors HIF-1,HIF-2 which in turn activate many genes for promoting tumor cell invasion and angiogenesis. Chun-Chung Lee et al.(2006)journal of cancer molecules.
