title: Macrophages and c-Myc cross paths.
abstract: The c-Myc transcription factor has recently been proposed as a bona fide M2 macrophage marker. Although this finding represents a major step forward in the identification of different macrophage subsets, it also opens up the potential for speculation concerning the possible functions of c-Myc in macrophages and the implications for health and disease.
