Researchers at University of California San Diego have discovered a process in which liver cells share molecules via vesicle exchange in order to multiply under conditions that would ordinarily suppress cell proliferation. They also found evidence that this process occurs in various types of cancer cells, paving the way for a new approach to tackling treatment resistance in cancer.
Researchers at the University of California San Diego and La Jolla Institute of Immunology have discovered a promising treatment approach for pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest and most treatment-resistant forms of cancer. The approach leverages the body’s natural immune response to cytomegalovirus, a common but typically harmless virus that most people are infected with at some point in their lives.
