Caption

More cancer cell death (yellow) is observed in mini pancreatic tumours (organoids) treated with combined KRAS silencing and RIG-I activation compared to controls.

Left (green): Acridine orange stains all the cancer cells in the organoids to visualise their size and structure.

Middle (red): Propidium iodide stains cells whose membrane integrity is lost due to the treatment.

Right (merged): The overlap of the two stains shows dead cancer cells (yellow) within the organoids.
