Among the most lethal of human cancers, pancreatic disease has long claimed lives not because it strikes swiftly, but because it prepares in silence. Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have now illuminated that hidden preparation, revealing that precancerous cells begin organizing immune-suppressive communities within pancreatic tissue a full decade before any clinical diagnosis is possible.
