In a thorough study analyzing DOG1 expression in well-defined stroma compartments of eight pancreatic adenocarcinomas they found a higher rate of DOG1 expression in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) that were located in the immediate neighborhood of cancer cells (juxtatumoral stroma) than in the cancer periphery (peritumoral stroma). Here, ANO1 is linked to pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
