Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are abundantly infiltrated in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), but the contact-dependent mechanisms that regulate CAFs phenotype in precursor cells, such as paracancerous fibroblasts (PFs), remain unclear. Here, a fibroblast-attached organoid (FAO) model was initiated to determine phenotype transition of fibroblasts triggered by contact with OSCC. MATERIAL AND...
