The GLP-1R Agonist Semaglutide Reshapes Pancreatic Cancer Associated Fibroblasts Reducing Collagen Proline Hydroxylation and Favoring T Lymphocyte Infiltration

[Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research] Scientists investigated the effect of dysmetabolism on pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) development in a pre-clinical PDAC model with a specific focus on the stromal compartment.

Adjuvant Chemotherapy after Resection of Localized Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma following Preoperative FOLFIRINOX

[Jama Oncology] This retrospective cohort study included patients with localized PDAC treated with 2 to 11 cycles of preoperative (m)FOLFIRINOX (combination leucovorin calcium [folinic acid], fluorouracil, irinotecan hydrochloride, and oxaliplatin in full or modified dosing) followed by resection.

SMAD4 and KRAS Status Shape Cancer Cell-Stromal Crosstalk and Therapeutic Response in Pancreatic Cancer

[Cancer Research] Investigators used single-cell RNA-sequencing to analyze the cellular landscape of Trp53-mutant mouse models driven by KrasG12D or KrasG12V in which Smad4 was wild-type or deleted.

Lineage Tracing of Pancreatic Cells for Mechanistic and Therapeutic Insights

[Trends In Endocrinology and Metabolism] Scientists summarize advances, challenges, and future directions in tracing pancreatic cell origins and fates using lineage-tracing technologies.

Betagenin Ameliorates Diabetes by Inducing Insulin Secretion and β-Cell Proliferation

[Journal of Biological Chemistry] Researchers isolated and identified a new intestine-derived hormone, betagenin, and showed that it stimulated insulin secretion and β-cell proliferation and suppresses β-cell apoptosis.

Targeting uPAR with An Antibody-Drug Conjugate Suppresses Tumor Growth And Reshapes The Immune Landscape In Pancreatic Cancer Models

[Science Advances] The authors explored the urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) as a candidate antibody-drug conjugate target in PDAC, harnessing its massive tumoral and stromal expression in this stroma-dense tumor.

BE-43547A2 Exerts Hypoxia-Selective Inhibition on Human Pancreatic Cancer Cells through Targeting eEF1A1 and Disrupting Its Association with FoxO1

[Acta Pharmacologica Sinica] Scientists investigated the molecular mechanism underlying the hypoxia selectivity of BE-43547A2 in human pancreatic cancer cells.

$3.4M Grant Targets Pancreatic Cancer Risk

[Innovent Biologics, Inc. (PR Newswire)] The University of Hawaiʻi Cancer Center has secured a $3.4 million grant from the National Cancer Institute for a new study aimed at improving pancreatic cancer risk prediction and prevention.

Intercellular TIMP-1-CD63 Signaling Directs the Evolution of Immune Escape and Metastasis in KRAS-Mutated Pancreatic Cancer Cells

[Molecular Cancer] Scientists investigated how KRAS-mutated epithelial cells acquired the capacity to escape senescence or even immune clearance, thereby progressing to advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

Neuronal-ILC2 Interactions Regulate Pancreatic Glucagon and Glucose Homeostasis

[Science] Scientists provided evidence that immune cells could be regulated by neuronal signals in response to fasting, activating an inter-organ communication route that promoted pancreatic endocrine function and regulation of blood glucose levels.

Targeting MXD1 Sensitises Pancreatic Cancer to Trametinib

[Gut] Scientists illustrated the mechanisms of resistance to trametinib in PDAC and identified trametinib resistance-associated druggable targets, thus improving the treatment efficacy of trametinib-resistant PDAC.

Melanophilin-Induced Primary Cilia Promote Pancreatic Cancer Metastasis

[Cell Death & Disease] Researchers demonstrated that melanophilin (MLPH) promoted PDAC metastasis by inducing the regrowth of primary cilia. Clinically, high MLPH expression was positively correlated with metastasis and poor PDAC prognosis.
