Description

Human Colorectal Tumor Carcinoma-Associated Fibroblasts (CAFs) are primary mesenchymal cells isolated from the stromal compartment of human colorectal carcinoma tissue. These fibroblasts exhibit a spindle-shaped morphology and strong adherent growth in vitro. CAFs actively remodel the extracellular matrix (ECM) and secrete a range of tumor-promoting factors, including hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), contributing to tumor progression, angiogenesis, and chemoresistance. Immunophenotypically, they express markers such as α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), fibroblast activation protein (FAP), and vimentin. These CAFs significantly enhance tumorigenicity when co-implanted with colorectal cancer cells, accurately mimicking the human tumor microenvironment. This cell model is a physiologically relevant tool for investigating tumor–stroma crosstalk and identifying therapeutic targets in colorectal cancer.

Application

  • Human Colorectal Tumor Carcinoma-Associated Fibroblasts (CAFs) allow researchers to develop 3D interpenetrating network hydrogel culture systems that enable precise modulation of the tumor microenvironment’s mechanical properties. This innovative platform allows in-depth study of CAF phenotype transitions and their dynamic interactions with colorectal cancer cells. By manipulating the mechanical characteristics of the microenvironment, the system revealed specific conditions linked to patient survival outcomes, providing novel insights that could inform the development of future therapeutic strategies against colorectal cancer.
