    Aminopyridine Analogs Selectively Target Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

    6-aminopicolamine (6AP) acted as a water-soluble prodrug that was converted into intracellular bioactive metabolites that inhibited phosphogluconate dehydrogenase in vitro, and 6AP monotherapy demonstrated anti-metastatic efficacy with minimal toxicity in vivo.

    The Idd2 Locus Confers Prominent Resistance to Autoimmune Diabetes

    Researchers generated a NOD congenic mouse bearing B10 resistance alleles on chromosome 9 in a locus coinciding with part of the insulin-dependent diabetes (Idd) 2 locus and found that NOD B10-Idd2 congenic mice were highly resistant to diabetes.

    Abstract

    IFN-γ Affects Pancreatic Cancer Properties by MACC1-AS1/MACC1 Axis via AKT/mTOR Signaling Pathway

    Rescue assays of cells overexpressing metastasis-related in colon cancer 1 (MACC1)-AS1 and of cells silencing MACC1 were performed and cellular properties and proteins were assessed.

    Abstract

    Exposure to Perfluorooctanoic Acid Leads to Promotion of Pancreatic Cancer

    Researchers demonstrated that perfluorooctanoic acid induced oxidative stress and focal ductal hyperplasia in the mouse pancreas.

    Abstract

    Development and Validation of a Novel 3-Gene Prognostic Model for Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Based on Ferroptosis-Related Genes

    Molecular markers play an important role in predicting clinical outcomes in pancreatic adenocarcinoma patients. The 173 samples were divided into three categories and a 3-gene signature model was constructed.

    PD-L1 and PD-L2 Expression in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma and Their Correlation with Immune Infiltrates and DNA Damage Response Molecules

    The authors investigated the expression of two programmed cell death (PD)-1 ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, analyzed their role in survival, and explored their correlation with clinicopathological features, immune infiltration, and DNA damage response molecules.
