The tumor associated microenvironment is known to play a vital role during the development and progression of different malignant tumors. As a part of tumor microenvironment, tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) are crucial for the genesis, proliferation, metastasis, and survival of tumor cells. Recently, more and more studies showed that TAMs were related with poor clinical status and survival in patients with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Considering the complex roles which TAMs play in the tumor microenvironment of DLBCL, the aim of this study was to review the biological mechanisms between TAMs and DLBCL cells, including extracellular matrix remodeling and angiogenesis promotion, tumor promotion, immune suppression, and phagocytosis inhibition. This review will help us to further understand the comprehensive impact of TAMs on DLBCL and explore possible prognostic markers and therapeutic targets.
