This grand round has already taken place.
January 16th, 2020 1.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit Hours
Description
I will discuss the pancreatic cancer microenvironment and metabolic interactions between different cells present within pancreatic tumors . This will mainly focus on our use of metabolomics techniques to identify crosstalk interactions and the consequences of these exchanges on therapy resistance. I will also briefly discuss some recent work identifying roles for metabolism in tumorigenesis.

Objectives
Objectives
1. Tumors exist as a complex environment with dynamic metabolic interactions between various cell populations.
2. Macrophages that are polarized by cancer cells provide chemoresistance through release of pyrimidine nucleosides, and inhibit cytotoxic T cells through arginine depletion.
3.Cancer cells are metabolically heterogeneous and can provide support across populations through metabolite exchange
