Role of Pancreatic Stellate Cells in Chemoresistance in Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer is highly chemoresistant. A major contributing factor is the characteristic extensive stromal or fibrotic reaction, which comprises up to 90% of the tumour volume. Over the last decade there has been intensive research into the role of the pro-fibrogenic pancreatic stellate cells (...
