Research trends of tumor-associated macrophages in colorectal cancer: a bibliometric analysis

Bibliometric analysis has highlighted the global landscape of research on CRC TAMs. Future research directions in CRC TAMs are likely to center on the integration of multi-omics, in-depth investigation of the tumor microenvironment, targeting TAMs, application of machine learning and artificial intelligence, and the development of personalized treatment strategies for CRC.

Abstract

Bibliometric analysis has highlighted the global landscape of research on CRC TAMs. Future research directions in CRC TAMs are likely to center on the integration of multi-omics, in-depth investigation of the tumor microenvironment, targeting TAMs, application of machine learning and artificial intelligence, and the development of personalized treatment strategies for CRC.
