Single-Cell Analysis of Patient-Derived PDAC Organoids Reveals Cell State Heterogeneity and a Conserved Developmental Hierarchy

Researchers derived pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma organoids from 18 primary tumors and two matched liver metastases, and showed that ‘classical’ and ‘basal-like’ cells coexist in individual organoids.

Intravital Imaging Technology Guides FAK-Mediated Priming in Pancreatic Cancer Precision Medicine according to Merlin Status

Scientists visualized transient manipulation of focal adhesion kinase, which integrated bidirectional cell-environment signaling, using intravital fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy of the FAK-based Förster resonance energy transfer biosensor in mouse and patient-derived pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma models.

A 584 BP Deletion in CTRB2 Inhibits Chymotrypsin B2 Activity and Secretion and Confers Risk of Pancreatic Cancer

Scientists proposed that intracellular accumulation of a nonfunctional chymotrypsinogen B2 protein led to endoplasmic reticulum stress and pancreatic inflammation, which might explain the increased pancreatic cancer risk in carriers of CTRB2 exon 6 deletion alleles.

Comprehensive Analysis of the Transcriptional Expressions and Prognostic Value of S100A Family in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

The authors investigated the transcriptional expressions, methylation level and prognostic value of S100As in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients from the Oncomine, GEPIA2, Linkedomics and cBioPortal databases. Real-time PCR was used to detect the expressions of S100A2/4/6/10/14/16 in four pancreatic cancer cell lines and pancreatic cancer tissues from PDAC patients undergoing surgery.
