EV-Transferred ACLY Promotes Immunosuppressive TAMs in HCC
2026-08-04
This study reveals that hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs) loaded with ATP-citrate lyase (ACLY), which are taken up by monocytes to drive their differentiation into tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) with immunosuppressive properties. The findings establish a mechanistic metabolic link between tumor cell-derived EVs, monocyte programming, and immune evasion in liver cancer, suggesting new therapeutic strategies targeting TAMs.
