Enrichment of Cancer‐Associated Fibroblasts, Macrophages, and Up‐Regulated TNF‐α Signaling in the Tumor Microenvironment of CMS4 Colorectal Peritoneal Metastasis by Eirik Høye, Chakravarthi Kanduri, Annette Torgunrud, Susanne Lorenz, Bjørn Edwin, Stein G. Larsen, Åsmund A. Fretland, Vegar J. Dagenborg, Kjersti Flatmark, Christin Lund‐Andersen

“…Notably, PM showed enrichment for CAFs and endothelial cells, consistent with distinct pathways associated with metastatic growth and progression in the peritoneal cavity. PM with the mesenchymal subtype, CMS4, had increased CAFs, endothelial cells, and macrophages, along with up‐regulated genes related to TNF‐α signaling via NF‐κB, EMT, and angiogenesis. …”
