Summary: A pancreatic cancer “time machine” engineered by Purdue University researchers has revealed that the disease is even more unpredictable than previously thought.Pancreatic cancer has one of the worst survival rates among cancers. Patients can expect as low as a nine percent chance to live for at least five years after being diagnosed. Going back in time to observe how cells with key gene mutations interact and become invasive would help researchers better understand how the cancer starts and identify it sooner. A pancreatic cancer “time machine” engineered by Purdue University researchers has revealed that the disease is even more unpredictable than previously thought: Cancer cells promote each other’s invasiveness when they grow together. Bumsoo Han, PhD, joins Dr. Roizen to explain more about this science. Want better health and nutrition?
