Treatment with gemcitabine results in a shift of innate immune cells, especially additional infiltration of protumoral M2 TAMs (P less then .001) and metabolic reprogramming. CONCLUSIONS Gemcitabine treatment of PDAC xenografts stimulates a protumoral macrophage phenotype, and this, in combination with a shift of the tumor cells to a mesenchymal phenotype that we reported previously, contributes to tumor progression and therapeutic resistance. Targeting M2-polarized TAMs may benefit PDAC patients at risk to become refractory to current anticancer regimens. Chronic infections place a significant burden on healthcare systems, requiring over $25 billion in treatment annually in the United States alone [1,2]. Notably, the majority of chronic infections, which include cystic fibrosis (CF), chronic wounds, otitis media, periodontitis, urinary tract infections, and osteomyelitis, are considered polymicrobial and are often recalcitrant to antibiotic treatment [1-9]. Although we know that diverse communities of microbes comprise these infections, how microbes interact and the impacts of these interactions on human disease are less understood. Here, we discuss recent advances in our understanding of how bacteria communicate in chronic infection, with a focus on Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and we highlight outstanding questions and controversies in the field. This study proposes a modelling framework of integrated one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic modelling to evaluate the effectiveness of sponge city construction at community scale. Through a case study in Zhuhai, we integrate Stormwater Management Model (SWMM) and Cellular Automata Dual-DraInagE Simulation (CADDIES) 2D model to analyze the rainfall-runoff process inv
