Anirban Maitra, Professor of Pathology and Translational Molecular Pathology at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center, shared on X:

“Preprint from Muzumdar Lab, Yale Cancer Center doing a deep dive on endocrine-exocrine crosstalk in Pancreatic Cancer and in particular how OBESITY modifies this interaction Beta cells are essential drivers of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma development.

So much data!!!! The contributions of Krishnaswamy Lab to the manuscript is pretty obvious (lol!)”
