Scientists have uncovered a hidden partnership between pancreatic cancer and the nervous system. Support cells in the ...

Researchers found that nerves and cancer-supporting cells team up early to drive pancreatic cancer—breaking that alliance ...

A study provides insights into the diversity of cancer-associated fibroblasts in white and black skin cancer and describes their different immunomodulatory roles in the tumor environment. The results ...

The use of immune-modulating fibroblasts, which are cultured under specific conditions to enhance their ability to suppress inflammation and address the root cause of cachexia and associated ...

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) get a bad rap. The protective, gel-like complex surrounding tumors have been thought to be a no-go for drugs and are known to enforce treatment resistance. But ...

Cell-based therapies can be developed in various ways, but companies look for methods that are faster and more efficient. At Houston, TX-based FibroBiologics scientists turn fibroblasts into ...

A new research paper was published on the cover of Aging, titled "Human senescent fibroblasts trigger progressive lung fibrosis in mice." Cell senescence has recently emerged as a potentially relevant ...

Scientists have mapped underappreciated scaffolding cells in skin, known as fibroblasts. They show for the first time how fibroblasts go 'rogue' in many different diseases affecting multiple organs – ...
