"textContent": "KLF5 appears to fuel pancreatic cancer metastasis by reprogramming epigenetic controls, offering a potential new therapeutic target. In experiments using lab-grown pancreatic cancer cells, researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine identified a gene that appears to play a central role in helping these tumors spread. The gene, known as KLF5 (Krueppel-like factor 5), does not drive [...]",
