Bulk RNA sequencing deconvolution of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma identifies cancer-associated fibroblast subsets associated with survival and tumor microenvironment composition

Nicole Dam, Mischa F.B. Steketee, Gaby J. Strijk…·Bram W. van Os

The paper uses bulk RNAseq deconvolution to identify CAF subtypes in early onset PDAC and links their abundance to survival and tumor microenvironment composition.

ZEB1, a novel regulator of Junctional Adhesion Molecule A, impacts sensitivity of pancreatic cancer-associated fibroblasts to oncolytic reovirus

Nicole Dam, Tom J. Harryvan, Hao Dang…·Vera Kemp

This study identifies ZEB1 as a regulator of JAM-A expression in pancreatic fibroblasts, showing that ZEB1 inhibition enhances reovirus sensitivity in these cells.
