A feature of pancreatic cancer cells' surroundings determines whether they grow fast or become resistant to chemotherapy, a new study shows. The ability of these cancer cells to adapt quickly and ...

Autophagy, which declines with age, may hold more mysteries than researchers previously suspected. Scientists have now uncovered possible novel functions for various autophagy genes, which may control ...

A new study unravels the relationship between mitofusins (mitochondrial proteins) and autophagy. Using gene editing with CRISPR-Cas9, the team has been able to study these proteins without altering ...

Researchers suggest targeting ECM-mediated regulation of autophagy levels could be used to sensitize pancreatic cancer to FDA-approved therapies.

In a twist that blurs the lines between two devastating diseases, scientists have spotted dementia-like behavior in the pancreas. In mice, pancreatic cells teetering on the brink of cancer began to ...
