The current pathological and molecular classification of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) provides limited guidance for treatment options, especially immunotherapy. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are major players desmoplastic stroma in PDAC, modulating tumor progression therapeutic response. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we explored the intertumoral heterogeneity among PDAC patients with different degrees desmoplasia. We found substantial CAFs, cancer cells, immune cells...

Abstract Chronic inflammation is a feature of pancreatic cancer, but little known about how immune cells or cell–related signals affect cancer stemness and development. Our previous work showed that IL22/IL22RA1 plays vital role in acute chronic pancreatitis progression by mediating cross-talk between acinar stellate cells, respectively. Here, we find IL22RA1 highly heterogeneously expressed with high expression associated poor prognosis patients cancer. The IL22RA1hi population from...

Abstract The immunosuppressive microenvironment that is shaped by hepatic metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) essential for tumor cell evasion of immune destruction. Neutrophils are important components the and exhibit heterogeneity. However, specific phenotypes, functions regulatory mechanisms neutrophils in PDAC liver metastases remain unknown. Here, we show a subset P2RX1-negative accumulate clinical murine metastases. RNA sequencing metastasis-infiltrated P2RX1-deficient...

Rationale: Endoplasmic reticulum oxidoreductase 1 alpha (ERO1L) is an endoplasmic (ER) luminal glycoprotein that has a role in the formation of disulfide bonds secreted proteins and membrane proteins. Emerging data identify ERO1L as tumor promoter wide spectrum human malignancies. However, its molecular basis oncogenic activities remains largely unknown. Methods: Pan-cancer analysis was performed to determine expression profile prognostic value cancers. The mechanism by which promotes growth...
