The stellate cancer-associated fibroblast in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma : its role in chemoresistance
2014-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Introduction: The tumour microenvironment has been found to contribute to cancer survival and progression, and more specifically, the stromal microenvironment has been implicated in the drug resistant nature of cancers such as pancreatic cancer. This microenvironment consists of fibroblasts, pericytes, endothelial cells and the extracellular matrix, with the stellate cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF) being the mo...
