IL-1α drives a tumor-stroma-neutrophil axis through inflammatory fibroblast activation in head and neck cancer
2026-01-22
Abstract excerpt
In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), high tumor-associated neutrophil (TAN) density is a robust biomarker of poor prognosis. TANs predominantly localize to the stroma and their intratumoral density strongly correlates with adverse outcome. Here, we investigated how tumor-stroma communication regulates TAN recruitment, activation, and spatial organization. We identified interleukin-1α (IL-1α), released...
