  • Granulin+ macrophages drive lineage plasticity in prostate cancer via GRN/TNFRSF1A interaction and NF-κB activation.
  • Reciprocal signaling between tumor cells and macrophages via CSF1/CSF1R sustains lineage plasticity.
  • GRN promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition and enzalutamide resistance in patient-derived organoids.
  • CSF1R inhibition in TRAMP models disrupts the GRN+ macrophage-tumor cell feedforward loop.
  • Spatial mapping shows direct interactions between VIM+ tumor cells and GRN+ macrophages.
  • Three novel stromal populations (DCN+ endothelial cells, CCL7+ fibroblasts, IFIT1+ neutrophils) linked to relapse.
