Pancreatic Tumor Growth Prevented In Mice By Inhibiting Key Protein, Stanford University School of Medicine Study

ScienceDaily (Feb. 2, 2009) — Researchers at Stanford University School of Medicine have identified a protein critical for the growth of pancreatic cancer. Blocking the expression of the protein slowed or prevented tumor growth in mice and made cultured cancer cells vulnerable to the conditions of low oxygen that occur in solid tumors.
