Boosting pancreatic cancer chemotherapy by disrupting nerve–cancer crosstalk

Announcing a new publication for Acta Materia Medica journal. A preclinical study has developed a precision nano-intervention strategy targeting tumor-associated nerves to destroy nerve-fueled tumor growth in pancreatic cancer. In this strategy, Escherichia coli Nissle 1917-derived outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are decorated with nerve-binding peptide for targeted delivery of co-loaded tropomyosin receptor kinase (Trk) inhibitors to tumor-associated […]
