The Potential Role of Autophagy Disorders in the Development of Pancreatic Cancer
Scientists funded by Cancer Research UK have discovered dementia-like behavior in pancreatic cells that are at risk of becoming cancerous. The findings provide clues that could help in the treatment and prevention of pancreatic cancer, a difficult-to-treat disease that is responsible for 6,900 deaths in the UK each year. Approximately 495,000 new cases are diagnosed […]
