Scientists have made a significant breakthrough in the fight against pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest forms of the disease.
They discovered that pancreatic cancer cells can shut down molecules in a vital gene, allowing the cancer to grow and spread rapidly.
This discovery could lead to new treatments that target this specific mechanism, potentially improving survival rates for patients.
The research team, from the UK and US, believes this understanding of how the cancer behaves could pave the way for more effective treatments in the future.
