The Role of nAChR and Calcium Signaling in Pancreatic Cancer Initiation and Progression

The Role of nAChR and Calcium Signaling in Pancreatic Cancer Initiation and Progression

Pancreatic cancer shows a strong correlation with smoking and the current therapeutic strategies have been relatively ineffective in improving the survival of patients. Efforts have been made over the past many years to understand the molecular events that drive the initiation and progression of pan...
