Did you mean M2 Macrophage Phenotype?

GlossaryM2 Macrophages

immune cells aiding tissue repair and reducing inflammation

M2 macrophages, also known as alternatively activated macrophages, are a type of immune cell that plays a crucial role in tissue repair, wound healing, and anti-inflammatory responses. Unlike M1 macrophages, which are involved in pro-inflammatory and pathogen-killing activities, M2 macrophages help to resolve inflammation and promote tissue regeneration.
