Tumor-associated-fibrosis and active collagen-CD44 axis characterize a poor-prognosis subtype of gastric cancer and contribute to tumor immunosuppression by Yingqi Yang, Haohan Sun, Hongkai Yu, Luyao Wang, Chang Gao, Haokun Mei, Xiaomeng Jiang, Minghui Ji

“…The expression of CD44 was significantly elevated in the subtype, associated with poor prognosis and tumor immune suppression in gastric cancer, potentially involved in the recruitment of immunosuppressive cells such as M2 macrophages and regulatory T cells (Tregs) and the upregulation of multiple immune checkpoints including PD-1/PD-L1. Conclusion Our study identified a new subtype of gastric cancer, revealing that fibrosis is a critical mechanism driving immune suppression in gastric cancer and emphasizing the central role of the Collagen-CD44 signaling axis. …”
