A malignant subpopulation of H2AFZ+ cells interacts with myeloid cells to promote an anti-inflammatory microenvironment and drive hepatic metastasis, revealing an immunotherapeutic strategy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

In conclusion, we reveal a metastasis-associated malignant subpopulation and provide a promising therapeutic strategy for metastatic PDAC.
