Type:
Also known as tumour-associated fibroblast TAF
A cell type within the tumor microenvironment that promotes tumorigenic features by initiating the remodelling of the extracellular matrix or by secreting cytokines. CAFs are a complex and abundant cell type within the tumour microenvironment.
Fibroblasts are the most abundant cells in the tumor microenvironment, also called tumor-associated fibroblasts (TAFs). They are known to secrete a variety of soluble factors, such as metalloproteinases (MMPs), enzymes that are related to changes in the extracellular matrix, promoting tumor invasion.

Pancreatic Cancer: Hypoxia (low oxygen tension) is commonly found in solid tumors. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1),is a key mediator of the cellular response to hypoxia and is overexpressed in a wide variety of solid tumors, including pancreatic cancer.
Nanog is highly expressed in CSCs compared to normal cells [93–97]
HIF-1↑
