Spatial-reprogramming derived GPNMB macrophages interact with COL6A3 fibroblasts to enhance vascular fibrosis in glioblastoma.

Genome medicine
BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant therapy plays an important role in the treatment of glioblastoma (GBM), but a considerable proportion of patients remain unresponsive to the combination of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) and antiangiogenic therapy. Understan...

Cancer-associated fibroblasts enhance colorectal cancer lymphatic metastasis via CLEC11A/LGR5-mediated WNT pathway activation.

The Journal of clinical investigation
Hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment promotes lymphatic metastasis, yet the role of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in this process remains insufficiently elucidated in colorectal cancer (CRC). In this study, we developed a large language model...

Pan-cancer single-cell and spatial transcriptomics implicate cancer-associated fibroblasts in neutrophil immunosuppressive phenotypic transitions and immunotherapy resistance.

Functional & integrative genomics
Neutrophils are the most abundant granulocyte population and have important functions such as defense against pathogens. However, they show significant Heterogeneity and play more complex roles in tumors. The theory of two-tiered differentiation of n...

Regulatory T cells and matrix-producing cancer associated fibroblasts contribute on the immune resistance and progression of prognosis related tumor subtypes in ccRCC.

Scientific reports
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a prevalent malignant tumor in the field of urology. The effect of cell heterogeneity on the prognosis and reaction to treatment of ccRCC in large populations is still unclear. By analyzing public single cel...

Activated cancer-associated fibroblasts correlate with poor survival and decreased lymphocyte infiltration in infiltrative type distal cholangiocarcinoma.

Scientific reports
Cancer-associated fibroblasts promote tumor progression through growth facilitation, invasion, and immune evasion. This study investigated the impact of activated cancer-associated fibroblasts (aCAFs) on survival outcomes, immune response, and molecu...

Prognostic model of lung adenocarcinoma from the perspective of cancer-associated fibroblasts using single-cell and bulk RNA-sequencing.

Scientific reports
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play important roles in the progression of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). We examined CAF subgroups via gene ontology, pseudo-time, and cell communication analyses and explored their prognostic value in LUAD using a ...

Integrative multi-omics and machine-learning approaches uncover a novel metabolic-related signature associated with cancer-associated fibroblasts in gastric cancer development.

Computers in biology and medicine
Gastric cancer (GC) ranks as the fifth most commonly diagnosed malignancy and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The integration of machine learning in the analysis of GC metabolomics data for biomarker identification rem...

Spatially-resolved analyses of muscle invasive bladder cancer microenvironment unveil a distinct fibroblast cluster associated with prognosis.

Frontiers in immunology
BACKGROUND: Muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) is a prevalent cancer characterized by molecular and clinical heterogeneity. Assessing the spatial heterogeneity of the MIBC microenvironment is crucial to understand its clinical significance.
