circRNA-disease information
Expression pattern:
UP
Cell type: macrophage
Cell type details: macrophages marker CD68
Detected method:
cell-type co-localization
Description:

ISH combined with CD68 immunofluorescence showed that circMERTK expression mainly overlapped with macrophages in CRC tissues and was higher in CRC tissues than matched normal tissues. The study further linked circMERTK in TAM-like cells to immunosuppressive activity through the circMERTK/miR-125a-3p/IL-10 axis.

Other information
Title:
