Activation of MAT2A-RIP1 signaling axis reprograms monocytes in gastric cancer

Background The activation of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) facilitates the progression of gastric cancer (GC). Cell metabolism reprogramming has been shown to play a vital role in the polarization of TAMs. However, the role of methionine metabolism in function of TAMs remains to be explored.Me...
