Stimulating immune cells to form special structures can potentiate pancreatic cancer chemotherapy A new study from Queen Mary University of London has demonstrated that immune cells can be stimulated to assemble into special structures within pancreatic cancer such that, at least in a pre-clinical model, researchers can demonstrate an improvement in the efficacy of chemotherapy. The body s immune system is a critical defense against illness such as infections, as has been highlighted by the recent COVID-19 pandemic. The same immune system can also help us fight cancer. However, pancreatic cancer is different; a key feature of this cancer type is that the pancreatic cancer cells are surrounded by a dense, impenetrable barrier known as the stroma, which often blocks the access of immune cells to the tumor. For this reason, immunotherapies - drugs that harness the power of the body s immune system to kill cancer cells - have shown limited success in the treatment of pancreatic cancer,
