Abstract

Pancreatic cancer is a uniformly lethal disease characterized by a strong stromal reaction called desmoplasia. Organ fibrosis is also a feature of chronic pancreatitis a known risk factor for pancreatic cancer.

Here we describe a transplantation approach to investigate bone marrow-derived cells in murine models of chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer.
