Producer T cells: Using genetically engineered T cells as vehicles to generate and deliver therapeutics to tumors.

abstract：:Recent studies on the processes that lead to the development of pancreatic cancer indicate that inflammatory macrophages have key functions in the initiation of pre-neoplastic lesions. Specifically, acquisition of an activating Kras mutation in pancreatic acinar cells leads to upregulation of intercellular adhesion mo...
