Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells differentiate into heterogeneous cancer-associated fibroblasts in a stroma-rich xenograft model
25 Feb 2021
Abstract excerpt
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are the key components of the densely proliferated stroma in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and contribute to tumor progression and drug resistance. CAFs comprise heterogeneous subpopulations playing unique and vital roles. However, the commonly used mouse models have not been able to fully reproduce the histological and functional characteristics of clinical human...
