Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive disease, and unlike many other cancers, survival rates have barely improved. Researchers at Karolinska Institutet, in collaboration with the Department of Pathology at Karolinska University Hospital, have now shown that pancreatic tumor cells not only spread in the connective tissue–rich environment that is a well-known characteristic of pancreatic cancer but also grow into damaged parts of normal pancreatic tissue. There, the cancer can create its own environment.
Over 60 million people worldwide are affected by psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory skin disorder that causes red, scaly patches and persistent itching.
