Pericytes orchestrate a tumor-restraining microenvironment in glioblastoma [Spatial Transcriptomics]
To functionally assess the role of pericytes in glioma development and progression, we study the effects of pericyte depletion in orthotopic and transgenic mouse models of high-grade glioma using single-cell and spatial transcriptomics. We present evidence that pericytes mitigate glioma development by orchestrating a tumor-suppressive microenvironment, challenging the concept of pericytes as merely pro-oncogenic cells, and underscoring the importance of pericyte preservation in future GBM therapies.
