The CXCL12/CXCR4 axis in breast cancer-associated fibroblasts: a transcriptome analysis and systematic literature review

It is hypothesised that the CXCR4 High -CAF transcriptome profile is compatible with a biologically plausible theory of transition between paracrine and autocrine regulatory modes and inflammatory cell states, and suggests a possible shift from TGF-β-dependent to CXCR4-mediated regulation of CXCL12.

Cancer-associated fibroblasts-derived CAV1 promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition and stemness in bladder cancer through activation of the LIF/STAT3 signaling pathway

CAV1 is identified as a fibroblast-associated gene linked to stemness- and ferroptosis-related signatures and promoting bladder cancer progression by activating the LIF-STAT3 signaling axis.

Abstract B001: Cancer-associated fibroblast p38α MAPK signaling coordinates collagen architecture and immune suppression to drive chemoresistance in pancreatic cancer

This work identified p38α MAPK (p38α; MAPK14) as a key regulator of inflammatory CAF activation and collagen remodeling and implicates it as a central mediator of stromal remodeling and therapeutic resistance in pancreatic cancer.

NCAPD3 induces M2 polarization of peripheral macrophages in lung adenocarcinoma by promoting the binding of E2F1 to the FOXM1 promoter region.

Serving as a highly prevalent malignant tumor, lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is frequently associated with the establishment of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment during its initiation and progression, where M2-polarized macrophages exert pivotal effects. NCAPD3 acts as an oncogenic driver in multiple tumors; how...
