Cancer acts like a wound that never heals, showing the immune system’s inability to eliminate tumor cells. A new discovery highlights a key molecule, PAF, which changes immune cells from protectors to tumor promoters. Minsoo Kim, PhD, from Wilmot Cancer Institute, emphasized that targeting PAF could lead to better treatments for cancers like pancreatic, breast, ovarian, colorectal, and lung cancers.
