Salk study unveils LIF's mechanism in form of pancreatic cancer
A new study from Salk Institute for Biological Studies pinpoints new mechanistic details about how LIF promotes pancreatic cancer, providing preclinical support for Northern Biologics' lead candidate.
In a Nature paper published Wednesday, Salk's Tony Hunter and colleagues showed that LIF is secreted by pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) to drive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) progression and chemoresistance...
