Regulation of CRC progression by macrophage-specific Act1 knockdown. Macrophage-specific Act1 knockdown promoted adenocarcinoma transition through the recruitment of TAMs and CD8+ T cells in tumor tissues. By activating STAT3 transcription factors, macrophages-specific Act1knockdown crosstalk with CRC cells and CD8+ T cells via CXCL9/10-CXCR3 and PD-1/PD-L1 axis and consequently promoted epithelial-mesenchymal transition and CRC progression.
