In addition to prior subtypes, our analysis uncovered a neural-like progenitor (NRP) program enriched in brain-associated genes from the Human Protein Atlas and pathways involved in neuronal development/migration, stem-like state, and hepatocyte nuclear factor activity.

Elegant work by @samirzaidi from @CharlesSawyers lab on mechanisms (JAK/STAT, FGFR) of multilineage plasticity towards NE and EMT states in #CRPC . Hints of similar plasticity in #PancreaticCancer . Common pathways, shared vulnerabilities? #AACR22 @davetingmgh @arnavmehta3

To address this shortcoming, we created a high-resolution cellular and spatial atlas of the cellular subtypes that compose pancreatic cancer.

We optimized single-nucleus RNA-seq for banked frozen patient specimens and profiled 224,988 nuclei across 43 tumors (18 untreated, 25 treated). Representative cell type distributions were captured compared to estimates from multiplexed ion beam imaging @IonpathOfficial .
