<p>Tumor weight, mouse weight and cytokine profiling of Uro A treatment in PKT mice.</p>
Immunotherapeutic agents are ineffective against pancreatic cancer, mainly due to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and stromal desmoplasia. Our current study demonstrates the therapeutic utility of a novel gut microbial metabolite, Uro A, to remodel the stromal-immune microenvironment and improve overall survival with anti-PD-1 therapy in pancreatic cancer.
