<i>In vitro</i> -generated inflammatory fibroblasts secrete extracellular matrix with biochemical and biophysical properties similar to tissue-remodelling fibroblasts
2024-09-26
Abstract excerpt
In solid cancers, inflammation and viral infections, two main fibroblast subtypes have been identified: myofibroblast-like fibroblasts and inflammatory fibroblasts. In the tumour microenvironment (TME), these cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF) subtypes are known as myCAFs, which generate a stiffened fibrotic extracellular matrix (ECM), and iCAFs, which secrete inflammatory cytokines to locally modulate the immune...
