In colon cancer, the prognostic value of macrophages is controversial, and it is still unknown how hypoxia modulates macrophage-cancer cell crosstalk. To unravel this, co-cultures of human primary macrophages and colon cancer cells were performed at 20% and 1% O2, followed by characterization of both cellular components. Different colon cancer patient cohorts were analyzed for hypoxia and immune markers, and th...
