Suppression of DKK3 protein thwarts pancreatic tumor progression and prolongs survival

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have shed new light on why pancreatic tumors are so resistant to therapy. The answer may lie in treating a protein found in the scar-type tissue called stroma which often surrounds the tumors. The tumor-associated stroma is comprised mostly of pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) and its density and possibly the […]
