Mechanistic Studies in the Inflammatory Response of Pancreatitis and Pancreatric Cancer - Role of Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells

Tumor-infiltrating myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), are important mediators of a tumor-permissive microenvironment that contributes to tumor growth and could account for the limited success of immunotherapeutic strategies. MDSCs suppress adaptive immunity by blocking T cell activation, indu...
