Summary: Each year, the American Cancer Society compiles data on cancer occurrence and outcomes in the United States. The latest data shows that breast and prostate cancer progress has stagnated, while lung cancer has shown improvements in survival rates. Lung cancer incidence for advanced disease has declined while localized-stage rates have increased, resulting in higher survival rates. Mortality patterns align with incidence trends, with lung cancer deaths declining rapidly, breast cancer deaths slowing, and prostate cancer deaths stabilizing.

Mesenchymal Lineage Heterogeneity Underlies Nonredundant Functions of Pancreatic Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts

Erin J. Helms et al.

Summary: This study reveals the origins and functions of distinct cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF) subtypes in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). It shows that the abundant and transcriptionally diverse CAF population in PDAC arises from pancreatic stellate cells (PSC), but only a minor subset is derived from PSCs. These PSC-derived CAFs have unique functions in shaping the PDAC microenvironment.

DIVERSITY AND BIOLOGY OF CANCER-ASSOCIATED FIBROBLASTS

Giulia Biffi et al.

Summary: Efforts to develop anti-cancer therapies have mainly targeted the epithelial compartment, but recent studies have shown the significant influence of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in tumor progression. CAFs not only promote cancer cell proliferation, therapy resistance, and immune exclusion, but may also restrain tumor progression in certain contexts. Research on CAFs has focused on their heterogeneity, plasticity, and functions across different cancer types and states, as well as advancements in therapeutic strategies targeting CAFs currently undergoing preclinical and clinical evaluation.

Spatially confined sub-tumor microenvironments in pancreatic cancer

Barbara T. Grunwald et al.

Summary: Through large-scale integration of histology-guided regional multiOMICs with clinical data and patient-derived preclinical models, we identified distinct subTMEs in the human pancreatic tumor microenvironment (TME) that are linked to tumor immunity, subtypes, differentiation, and treatment response. Reactive subTMEs rich in coordinated fibroblast communities were immune hot, while matrix-rich deserted subTMEs harbored fewer activated fibroblasts but showed chemoprotective features. These subTMEs originated in fibroblast differentiation trajectories and produced patient-specific heterogeneity tightly linked to malignant biology.

KNSTRN promotes tumorigenesis and gemcitabine resistance by activating AKT in bladder cancer

Yaoyi Xiong et al.

Summary: This study identified an oncogene KNSTRN that promotes tumorigenesis and gemcitabine resistance by activating AKT phosphorylation. KNSTRN interacts with PTEN and AKT at the cell membrane, facilitating AKT movement to PIP3 for activation. The findings suggest that KNSTRN may serve as a potential therapeutic target for bladder cancer.

Single-Nucleus and In Situ RNA-Sequencing Reveal Cell Topographies in the Human Pancreas

Luca Tosti et al.

Summary: By employing single-nucleus RNA-sequencing protocols, this study constructed a comprehensive atlas of human pancreatic cells, identifying novel acinar cell types and highlighting differences in cellular composition in endocrine tissues. Additionally, the research revealed dynamic topographies of pancreatic endocrine and exocrine tissues, as well as potential cellular foundations in certain pancreatic diseases.

Targeting and Reprograming Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts and the Tumor Microenvironment in Pancreatic Cancer

Yoshiaki Sunami et al.

Summary: Targeting cancer-associated fibroblasts has been considered a promising therapeutic strategy for pancreatic cancer, yet depleting these cells may have tumor-promoting effects due to their functional heterogeneity. It is therefore important to selectively target the tumor-promoting subtype of cancer-associated fibroblasts to achieve effective treatment outcomes.

Hypoxia-Induced ZWINT Mediates Pancreatic Cancer Proliferation by Interacting With p53/p21

Peng Chen et al.

Summary: Research has shown that ZWINT is overexpressed in pancreatic cancer and promotes tumor growth by activating the p53/p21 signaling pathway. ZWINT interacts with p53 and promotes its ubiquitination and degradation, thus facilitating proliferation in pancreatic cancer.

Regulator of calcineurin 1 gene isoform 4 in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma regulates the progression of tumor cells

Mengyi Lao et al.

Summary: The study revealed an important role of regulator of calcineurin 1.4 (RCAN1.4) in regulating the progression of PDAC (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma), suppressing tumor cell migration, proliferation, and angiogenesis. Additionally, interferon alpha inducible protein 27 (IFI27) and VEGFA play crucial roles in RCAN1.4-mediated PDAC migration, invasion, and angiogenesis.

Dynamic Stromal Alterations Influence Tumor-Stroma Crosstalk to Promote Pancreatic Cancer and Treatment Resistance

Kendelle J. Murphy et al.

Summary: PDAC is a highly lethal solid malignancy with a low five-year survival rate of around 10%. The interactions between tumor and stromal or immune cells in the pancreatic tumor microenvironment play a critical role in both promoting and restraining the development and progression of PDAC. Understanding the role of the extracellular matrix and stromal cells like cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) is vital for developing effective treatment strategies for this aggressive disease.
