BioRender Template
Macrophage Polarization: M1 and M2 Subtypes
Description
This template compares M1 and M2 macrophages side by side, showing M1 cells with TLR-4, CD86, and iNOS markers secreting proinflammatory cytokines like TNF-alpha and IL-12, and M2 cells with CD206, CD163, and CD209 markers secreting IL-10, TGF-beta, and VEGF. Text boxes below each cell summarize their opposing functions, with M1 driving proinflammatory and tumoral activity and M2 supporting tissue repair and tumor progression.
