CaptnA,
I’m very sorry to hear this.
Her oncologists should know that CCR5 is upregulated in many metastatic tumors, but also that the tumor microenvironment is enhanced through increased expression of ccl5, causing trafficking of m2 monocytes and tregs, impairing the normal cytotoxic response to malignant cells.
Here are a few articles to share.
