Our data reveal FAP colonic mucosa, pre-cancer polyps and colorectal cancers exhibit substantial alterations in cell composition and TME, including increased cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), inhibition of tumor infiltrated lymphocytes and cell-adhesion protein by CAFs, the transformation of memory T cells into regulatory T cells, nuclear translocation of beta-catenin from the cell membrane….”
