The new study focuses on stromal cells—non-cancerous cells surrounding pancreatic tumours—and their interactions with natural killer (NK) immune cells. The findings could help guide the development of more effective therapies. doi.org/10.1002/cac2.12638

The interplay between natural killer cells and pancreatic stellate cells in pancreatic ductal...

journal-of-hepatology.eu/art… Great work by team led by Dr Stuart McDonald. Support from Cancer Tissue Bank. @LabKocher @QMBCI @QMUL @QMULBartsTheLon @NHSBartsHealth

Hepatocytes undergo punctuated expansion dynamics from a periportal stem cell niche in normal human...

While normal human liver is thought to be generally quiescent, clonal hepatocyte expansions have been observed, though neither their cellular source nor their expansion dynamics have been determined....
