Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Induction of anti-tumor immunity in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is an unresolved challenge. Systematic investigation of the microenvironment of primary pancreatic tumors revealed a role of endocrine Langerhans islets in the coordination of immune activation. We found that intratumoral β-cells, regulated via STAT3, secrete C-C motif chemokine ligand 27 (CCL27) and thereby promote a T...
