Multicellular Calcium Waves in Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts Regulate Neuronal Mimicry and Anisotropy Leading to Immune Exclusion

Giovanni Giangreco, Zoe Ramsden, Antonio Rullan…·Erik A. Sahai

The paper identifies neuronal mimicry in cancer-associated fibroblasts driven by calcium waves, leading to immune exclusion, and shows that blocking this process restores immune control.
