Prognostic value of desmoplastic stroma in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

Nathalie Guedj et al.

Summary: In this study, the prognostic value of stromal compartment in iCC was evaluated using multiparametric morphological analysis. It was found that high proportionated stromal area was associated with better disease-free survival (DFS), while low activated stroma index was linked to a better DFS. On the other hand, high collagen reticulation index was associated with poorer overall survival, suggesting potential clinical relevance in evaluating collagen reticulation in patients with iCC.

Type I collagen deletion in αSMA+ myofibroblasts augments immune suppression and accelerates progression of pancreatic cancer

Yang Chen et al.

Summary: The stromal desmoplastic reaction in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma involves significant accumulation of type I collagen (Col1). Deletion of Col1 specifically in myofibroblasts accelerates PDAC progression by increasing Cxcl5 expression in cancer cells and promoting recruitment of myeloid-derived suppressor cells. Targeting CXCR2 and CCR2 may help restrain accelerated PDAC progression in the absence of stromal Col1.

Promotion of cholangiocarcinoma growth by diverse cancer-associated fibroblast subpopulations

Silvia Affo et al.

Summary: The study reveals that hepatic stellate cells (HSC) are the main source of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF), and HSC-derived CAF interact predominantly with tumor cells. In mouse models, CAF promote the progression of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), while in patients, a high pan-CAF signature is associated with decreased survival and increased recurrence. Single-cell RNA sequencing segregates CAF into distinct subpopulations, with different interactions with tumor cells and promoting ICC growth.
