Abstract

Cancer-associated fibroblasts share defined features with fibroblasts in secondary lymphoid organs, including the ability to regulate immune cell localization. In this issue of Cancer Discovery, Grout and colleagues perform multimodal analysis of human lung cancer specimens and identify two distinct fibroblast populations associated with spatial exclusion of T cells from tumor cell nests. See related article by Grout et al., p. 2606 (3).
