Fibroblast heterogeneity and immunosuppressive environment in Human breast cancer

Carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAF) are key players in the tumor microenvironment. Here, by combining 6 well-known stromal markers, we identify four CAF subsets (CAF-S1 to CAF-S4) in human breast cancer (BC) that exhibit distinct activation patterns and accumulate differently in BC subtypes.
