|
|
| Knockdown and exogenous treatment of Galectin-3 binding protein showed that it was required for PDAC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. [Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America] |

|
|
| Researchers used endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration to collect pancreatic cancer tissues from patients with advanced pancreatic cancer to create organoids, and evaluated their utility in pancreatic cancer research. [Gut and Liver] |
|
|
|
| The authors reported that KIF24 depletion suppressed multipolar spindle formation by clustering centrosomes in PDAC harboring supernumerary centrosomes. [Life Science Alliance] |
|
|
|
| Pancreatic cancer cells were treated with different concentrations of Periplocin, and real-time cell analysis, colony formation assay, and Ki67 immunofluorescence detection were used to determine cell proliferation. [Journal of Oncology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the role of conditioned medium derived from pancreatic cancer cells and pancreatic stellate cells co-culture on the viability of lymphocytes. [Scientific Reports] |
| |
|
|
|
| Investigators discuss how precision medicine in PDAC is moving the needle on survival and explore future opportunities. [Journal of Clinical Oncology] |
|
|
|
| The authors provide an overview of the current approaches and achievements in obtaining stem cell-derived β-cells and the numerous challenges, which still need to be overcome to achieve this goal. [Stem Cell Research & Therapy] |
|
|
|
| Scientists provide insights into long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) as promising biomarkers for tumor metastasis and potential therapeutic strategies for pancreatic cancer. [Discover Oncology] |
