News from @UVMcancercenter and @RedoxVT, the Redox Biology and Pathology Program at #UVMLarnerMed.
NEW @NatureCellBio study finds glutathione S transferase theta drives pancreatic cancer metastasis by targeting fibronectin which places redox reactions front and center in tumor metastatic behavior. Congrats @RedoxVT on supporting these findings! go.nature.com/4aVXWAE
