title: Pancreatic cancer--could it be that simple? A different context of vulnerability.
abstract: In a recent issue of Science, Olive and colleagues document that inhibition of Hedgehog (Hh) signaling in a genetically engineered mouse model of pancreatic cancer can enhance the intratumor concentration of certain anticancer drugs. Could this finding provide us with a new method to attack pancreatic cancer?
