Differentiating between the tumor microenvironment and inflammation in order to use immune cells as living cell diagnostics for early cancer detection

Recent advances in the field of synthetic biology have enabled the use of macrophages as living cell diagnostics for early cancer detection. Presently, macrophages have been engineered to be macrophage sensors, which produce a reporter signal upon activation of the ARG1 promoter—an event which will...
