Giving early-stage pancreatic cancer patients a CD40 immune-stimulating drug helped jumpstart a T cell attack to the notoriously stubborn tumor microenvironment before surgery and other treatments, according to a new study from researchers in the Abramson Cancer Center (ACC) at the University of Pennsylvania. Changing the microenvironment from so-called T cell "poor" to T cell […]

Tumorspheres for screening anti-CSC drugs What is the future of tumorspheres? What are tumorspheres? Numerous studies have pointed out that cancer stem cells (CSCs) play an important role in cancer progression, metastasis, […]
Pancreatic cancer symptoms can be vague and vary depending on where the cancer is in the pancreas – in the head, body or tail. In the early stages of pancreatic cancer, the tumour doesn’t usually cause any symptoms. But one of the first noticeable symptoms of the cancer health experts recognise is yellowing of the […]
Many cancers are relatively harmless at their site of origin, and it is only when they metastasize to sites like the brain, bones, lungs, and liver that they become especially dangerous. And so, in addition to stopping the growth of cancer at its primary site, an ongoing goal of cancer research is to keep cancer […]
Biology textbooks teach us that adult cell types remain fixed in the identity they have acquired upon differentiation. By inducing non-insulin-producing human pancreatic cells to modify their function to produce insulin in a sustainable way, researchers at the University of Geneva (UNIGE), Switzerland, show for the first time that the adaptive capacity of our cells […]
Rishab Jain is 14 years old and lives in the United States. The Teenager has developed a Alogorithmus that can be used in the fight against pancreatic cancer. In the star , he describes his Motivation. “I have always admired Apple founder Steve Jobs. I was fascinated by his dedication, he has brought new technologies […]
Recent breakthroughs in immunotherapy are making a huge difference in treating some forms of cancer, especially metastatic cancer. But breast cancer has proven a tricky foe for this new therapy, and an interdisciplinary team of FSU researchers is now a little bit closer to figuring out why. Associate Professor of Statistics Jinfeng Zhang, Professor of […]
Researchers from Eindhoven University of Technology (The Netherlands) and Keio University (Japan) present a practicable and reliable way to test for infectious diseases: All you need are a special glowing paper strip, a drop of blood and a digital camera, as they write in the scientific journal Angewandte Chemie. Not only does this make the […]
