Abstract excerpt
A recently published JCI paper revealed that cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are present in glioblastoma and are defined by the presence of 9 transcriptional markers (1).CAFs can form a barrier around cancer cells that prevents their detection by T cells (2).The normal brain has low levels of collagen, but deposition increases in gliomas, especially around vessels.In addition to collagen facilitating tumor...
