Tumor microenvironment acidosis favors pancreatic cancer stem cell properties and <i>in vivo</i> metastasis
2024-06-17
Abstract excerpt
The acidic tumor microenvironment favors cancer aggressiveness via incompletely understood pathways. Here, we asked whether acidic environments select for cancer stem cell (CSC) properties. Bulk RNA-seq of Panc-1 human pancreatic cancer cells adapted to extracellular pH 6.5 revealed upregulation of CSC markers including CD44, EpCam, Nestin and aldehyde dehydrogenases, and CSC pathway enrichment. We therefore asses...
