Cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are one of the main components of tumor microenvironment (TME). In TME, the interaction between tumor cells and non-tumor cells or among non tumor cells can promote the occurrence and development of tumors. CAFs can interact with a variety of immune cells and promote the occurrence and development of tumors by inhibiting the function of adaptive immune cells and reshaping the immune microenvironment in TME. The interaction between CAFs and macrophages and the induction of macrophage polarization towards M2 type play an important role in promoting tumor occurrence and development. This article reviews the research progress of CAF in promoting the polarization of M2 macrophages.
