PG - 1034-1045 LID - 10.1080/1061186X.2020.1775236 [doi] AB - Macrophages (Mo) are immune cells with natural phagocytic ability and play an important role in tumorigenesis, development and metastasis. Mo play a dual role of tumour inhibition and tumour promotion in tumour development due to their two different phenotypes. Mo in the tumour microenvironment have long been referred to as tumour-associated Mo (TAMs). Mo are mainly involved in tumour resistance, cancer metastasis and mediating immunosuppression. Nowadays, Mo and Mo membranes have been widely used in drug delivery systems (DDSs) because of their good biocompatibility, natural phagocytosis and their important role in tumour development. In this review, from the perspective of Mo's role in tumour development, we present strategies and drugs of Mo targeting and focusing on the several types of biomimetic nanoparticles constructed by Mo and Mo membranes in tumour therapy, and discuss the problem of this delivery system in present research and future directions.
