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.

Metabolic dysfunction and inflammatory disease: the role of stromal fibroblasts.

TL;DR: Recent research on fibroblast metabolism in inflammatory microenvironments is examined, providing insight into the role of fibroblasts and metabolism in mediating inflammatory disease progression namely cancer, arthritis and fibrotic disorders including chronic kidney disease, pulmonary fibrosis, heart disease and liver disease.

The Pancreatic Tumor Microenvironment Buffers Redox Imbalance Imposed by Disrupted Mitochondrial Metabolism

TL;DR: This work demonstrates that the loss of mitochondrial glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase 2 (GOT2), a component in the malate-aspartate shuttle (MAS), disturbs redox homeostasis and halts proliferation of PDA cells in vitro and describes a potential resistance mechanism mediated by metabolic crosstalk within the pancreatic TME.

Targeting Tumour-Associated Fibroblasts in Cancers

TL;DR: The therapeutic potential of targeting stromal cells, especially tumour-associated fibroblasts, within the TME as an adjuvant therapy to sensitize immunosuppressive tumours and prevent cancer progression, chemo-resistance and metastasis is discussed.

MicroRNAs in the Tumor Microenvironment.

TL;DR: The role of miRNAs in the crosstalk between different cell populations found within the TME is summarized, to illustrate how they act on tumorigenesis and the behavior of cells in theTME context is illustrated.

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.
