Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), a very aggressive tumour, is currently the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Unfortunately, many patients face the issue of inoperability at the diagnostic phase leading to a quite dismal prognosis. The onset of metastatic processes has a crucial role in the elevated mortality rates linked to PDAC. Individuals with metastatic advances receive only palliative therapy and have a grim prognosis. It is essential to carefully analyse the intricacies of the metastatic process to enhance the prognosis for individuals with PDAC. Malignancy development is greatly impacted by the process of macrophage efferocytosis. Our current knowledge about the complete range of macrophage efferocytosis activities in PDAC and their intricate interactions with tumour cells is still restricted. This work aims to resolve communication gaps and pinpoint the essential transcription factor that is vital in the immunological response of macrophage populations. We analysed eight PDAC tissue samples sourced from the gene expression omnibus. We utilized several software packages such as Seurat, DoubletFinder, Harmony, Pi, GSVA, CellChat and Monocle from R software together with pySCENIC from Python, to analyse the single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data collected from the PDAC samples. This study involved the analysis of a comprehensive sample of 22,124 cells, which were classified into distinct cell types. These cell types encompassed endothelial and epithelial cells, PDAC cells, as well as various immune cells, including CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, NK cells, B cells, plasma cells, mast cells, monocytes, DC cells and different subtypes of macrophages, namely C0 macrophage TGM2+, C1 macrophage PFN1+, C2 macrophage GAS6+ and C3 macrophage APOC3+. The differentiation between tumour cells and epithelial cells was achieved by the implementation of CopyKat analysis, resulting in the detection and categorization of 1941 PDAC cells. The amplification/deletion patterns observed in PDAC cells on many chromosomes differ significantly from those observed in epithelial cells. The study of Pseudotime Trajectories demonstrated that the C0 macrophage subtype expressing TGM2+ had the lowest level of differentiation. Additionally, the examination of gene set scores related to efferocytosis suggested that this subtype displayed higher activity during the efferocytosis process compared to other subtypes. The most active transcription factors for each macrophage subtype were identified as BACH1, NFE2, TEAD4 and ARID3A. In conclusion, the examination of human PDAC tissue samples using immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated the co-localization of CD68 and CD11b within regions exhibiting the presence of keratin (KRT) and alpha-smooth muscle actin (alpha-SMA). This observation implies a spatial association between macrophages, fibroblasts, and epithelial cells. There is variation in the expression of efferocytosis-associated genes between C0 macrophage TGM2+ and other macrophage cell types. This observation implies that the diversity of macrophage cells might potentially influence the metastatic advancement of PDAC. Moreover, the central transcription factor of different macrophage subtypes offers a promising opportunity for targeted immunotherapy in the treatment of PDAC.
