Tumor-associated fibroblasts predominantly come from local and not circulating precursors
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Fibroblasts constitute an important element of tumors and have received considerable attention in recent years due to their tumor-promoting and immunosuppressive properties. As a consequence, tumor-associated fibroblasts (TAFs) are considered an attractive target for cancer therapies. However, their origin remains controversial, with some evidence pointing at a local origin, whereas many publications suggest a significant contribution of progenitors from bone marrow. We found that TAFs derive almost exclusively from local sources. Therefore, therapeutic strategies to target fibroblasts must exploit local recruitment and the unique transcriptional and response patterns of fibroblasts from different sites.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
