2025-04-10
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Cancer-associated fibroblasts promote tumor progression through growth facilitation, invasion, and immune evasion. This study investigated the impact of activated cancer-associated fibroblasts (aCAFs) on survival outcomes, immune response, and molecular pathways in distal bile duct (DBD) cancer. We analyzed 469 patients (418 from our cohort and 51 from The Cancer Genome Atlas) with DBD...
