[Research status of the tumor stroma ratio in prognosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer].

An increasing number of studies suggested that the tumor microenvironment exerts a substantial influence on the pathophysiology of pancreatic cancer. As a crucial component of the tumor microenvironment,the tumor stroma plays a pivotal role in the occurrence,development,and chemotherapy resistance of pancreatic cancer. By serving as a proxy for the interaction between tumor cells and the microenvironment,the tumor stroma ratio(TSR) has emerged as a focal point of investigation in recent years. At present,numerous studies show that a low TSR is a protective factor for the prognosis of resectable pancreatic cancer. Additionally, patients with a low TSR are more suitable for the gemcitabine and albumin
