Engineered extracellular matrices reveal stiffness-mediated chemoresistance in patient-derived pancreatic cancer organoids
2022-04-22
Abstract excerpt
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by its fibrotic and stiff extracellular matrix (ECM); however, the role that altered cell-ECM signaling may play in driving PDAC phenotype has historically been difficult to dissect. Here, we design an engineered matrix that recapitulates key hallmarks of the tumor ECM and show that patient-derived PDAC organoids develop gemcitabine chemoresistance when cult...
