Metabolic reprogramming of cancer-associated fibroblasts by IDH3α downregulation.

TLDR
It is reported that TGF-β1- or PDGF-induced CAFs switch from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis, and downregulation of isocitrate dehydrogenase 3α (IDH3α) is identified as a marker for this switch.

NDUFA4L2 expression predicts poor prognosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma patients.

TL;DR: It is suggested that ccRCC patients with NDUFA4L2 overexpression may be suitable as a potential therapeutic target for ccR CC patients.

The Influence of Breast Tumour-Derived Factors and Wnt Antagonism on the Transformation of Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells into Tumour-Associated Fibroblasts

TL;DR: The breast tumour milieu may transform ADSCs into a tumour-supportive phenotype, which can be altered by Wnt antagonism, but is independent of metabolic changes.

Overexpression of NDUFA4L2 is associated with poor prognosis in patients with colorectal cancer.

TL;DR: Little study has investigated its prognostic value in colorectal cancer (CRC), but immunofluorescence showed a clear colocalization of NDUFA4L2 and cytochrome c in some tumour cells.

Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts in the Hypoxic Tumor Microenvironment

TL;DR: The mechanisms underlying the hypoxic regulation of CAFs and how hypoxic CAFs affect cancer development and progression are summarized and the potential therapeutic strategies focused on targeting CAFs in the Hypoxic tumor microenvironment are discussed.

Inflammation and cancer

TL;DR: It is now becoming clear that the tumour microenvironment, which is largely orchestrated by inflammatory cells, is an indispensable participant in the neoplastic process, fostering proliferation, survival and migration.

Angiogenesis in cancer and other diseases

TL;DR: Pathological angiogenesis is a hallmark of cancer and various ischaemic and inflammatory diseases and integrated understanding is leading to the development of a number of exciting and bold approaches to treat cancer and other diseases, but owing to several unanswered questions, caution is needed.

Stromal Fibroblasts Present in Invasive Human Breast Carcinomas Promote Tumor Growth and Angiogenesis through Elevated SDF-1/CXCL12 Secretion

TL;DR: Using a coimplantation tumor xenograft model, it is demonstrated that carcinoma-associated fibroblasts extracted from human breast carcinomas promote the growth of admixed breast carcinoma cells significantly more than do normal mammaries derived from the same patients.

Basement membranes: structure, assembly and role in tumour angiogenesis

TL;DR: The basement membrane (BM) as mentioned in this paper is a specialized form of extracellular matrix (ECM) which mediates tissue compartmentalization and sends signals to epithelial cells about the external microenvironment.

Carcinoma-associated fibroblasts direct tumor progression of initiated human prostatic epithelium.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate that fibroblasts associated with carcinomas stimulate tumor progression of initiated nontumorigenic epithelial cells both in an in vivo tissue recombination system and in vitro coculture system.
