Image: Pancreatic tumors are surrounded by a protective \"nest\" made of fibrotic scar tissue and the cells that manufacture it (red). A new study in mice demonstrates that disrupting this fibrous tissue makes immune therapy and chemotherapy more effective in attacking tumors of the pancreas (Photo courtesy of the DeNardo Laboratory, Washington University School of Medicine).

Blocking Formation of Scar Tissue Increases Susceptibility of Pancreatic Cancer to Immunotherapy

Cancer researchers have shown that treatment with a focal adhesion kinase (FAK) inhibitor rendered pancreatic cancer tumors susceptible to immunotherapy in a mouse model of the disease. More...

Image: A micrograph of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The liver has a prominent macrovesicular steatosis (white/clear round/oval spaces) and mild fibrosis (green). The hepatocytes stain red. Macrovesicular steatosis is lipid accumulation that is so large it distorts the cell\'s nucleus (Photo courtesy of Wikimedia Commons).

Stem Cell-Based Model System to Boost Research on Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

A team of German liver disease researchers created an in vitro model of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) using induced pluripotent stem cells that had been differentiated into hepatocyte-like cells. More...
