Organ Specificity and Heterogeneity of Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts in Colorectal Cancer
Fibroblasts constitute a ubiquitous mesenchymal cell type and produce the extracellular matrix (ECM) of connective tissue, thereby providing the structural basis of various organs. Fibroblasts display differential transcriptional patterns unique to the organ of their origin and they can be activated...
