Cancer growth depends not only on cancer cells but also on the surrounding tumor microenvironment, where many cell types interact.Among them are cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), which can either support or restrain tumors.Since all tumors vary in the abundance and dominance of specific CAF subtypes, overgeneralizing a single CAF classification across different tissue types may be unreliable.

Abstract

Cancer growth depends not only on cancer cells but also on the surrounding tumor microenvironment, where many cell types interact.Among them are cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), which can either support or restrain tumors.Since all tumors vary in the abundance and dominance of specific CAF subtypes, overgeneralizing a single CAF classification across different tissue types may be unreliable.
