Antigen-presenting cancer-associated fibroblasts in murine pancreatic tumors differentially control regulatory T cell phenotype and function via CXCL9 and CCL22

Saumya Y. Maru, Meredith Wetzel, Jacob T. Mitchell…·Elizabeth M. Jaffee

This study shows antigen-presenting cancer-associated fibroblasts (apCAFs) in murine pancreatic tumors influence regulatory T cell phenotype and function through CXCL9 and CCL22, affecting immune checkpoint blockade response.

Cancer associated fibroblasts drive epithelial to mesenchymal transition and classical to basal change in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells with loss of IL-8 expression

Samantha R. Guinn, Brayan Perez, Joseph A. Tandurella…·Jacquelyn W. Zimmerman

The paper investigates how cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) influence tumor cell behavior in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma by driving EMT and altering cell subtypes, with IL-8 playing a key modulatory role.

Immune landscape of tertiary lymphoid structures in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with neoadjuvant immune checkpoint blockade

Daniel H. Shu, Won Jin Ho, Luciane Tsukamoto Kagohara…·Mark M. Yarchoan

This study examines TLS in HCC treated with neoadjuvant immunotherapy, finding TLS correlate with better outcomes and show distinct morphological and functional features in tumor regression.
