A study published in the journal Nature Communications explains that chronic stress contributes to pancreatic tumors resisting chemotherapy. It shows that nerve signals resulting from psychological stress promote the growth of blood vessels that feed the tumor and reduce the effectiveness of treatment. Experiments demonstrated that nanoparticles carrying the drug propranolol can diminish nerve signals within the tumor, leading to a reduction in tumor size and improved treatment response. These findings are a promising step toward developing therapies that target the relationship between stress and cancer.
