ABSTRACT
Malignant gliomas remain lethal with available therapies, including immune checkpoint blockade. Tumor cells

and glioma-associated microglia/macrophages (GAMMs) collectively activate inflammatory responses in the

tumor microenvironment (TME), leading to immune suppression, therapy resistance, tumor progression, and

relapse. Hence,…
