@lpachter RG-like and RG-nIPC-like (green) are co-localized by AC/FB/GW -like in both the UMAP and spatial data. Spatial enrichment shows same pattern (we did not include this last one)
Thrilled to share our work: Glioblastoma is spatially organized by neurodevelopmental programs and a glial-like wound healing response. Led by J. Janusauskas and myself.

Finally, we observed specific tumor-stroma interactions, such as the interaction of AC-like CRYAB+ tumor cells with the endothelium, consistently across GBM tumors independently of mutational profile and also present in oligodendroglioma.
Despite the long stated GBM heterogeneity, we generalize a model for the development and growth of GBM and its interaction with the immune system. High proliferation in the periphery - tissue damage and wound response at the core.
