BRANCH DUCT ORIGIN OF SOLID TYPE PANCREATIC DUCTAL CARCINOMA

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1993
A case of branch duct origin of solid type pancreatic ductal carcinoma is presented. Stepwise tissue sections of an entire specimen, including the carcinoma area, and mapping, with special reference to the relationship between the main duct and the carcinoma area, were performed. Carcinoma cells of the branch duct showed intraductal spread with minimal

Thrombospondin-1 expression as a prognostic predictor of pancreatic ductal carcinoma

International Journal of Oncology, 2002
Pancreatic cancer is a malignant tumor with an extremely poor prognosis. Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) was suggested to be a potential regulator of tumor growth and metastasis. We examined TSP-1 expression in 77 cases of invasive ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas, and analyzed the correlation between the TSP-1 expression pattern and clinicopathological ...

Interaction of pancreatic ductal carcinoma with nerves leads to nerve damage

Gastroenterology, 1994
Perineural extension of pancreatic adenocarcinoma has been explained as a mechanical extension along planes of least resistance. This study tests whether the cancer is limited to following these planes and if substances involved in cell signaling are involved in the interaction of cancer cells with nerves.Samples of tissue from patients undergoing ...

The molecular genetics of pancreatic ductal carcinoma.

Minerva chirurgica, 2003
Pancreatic ductal carcinoma remains the 4th leading cause of cancer death in both men and women in the United States, with an overall 5-year survival of less than 3%. Over the last decade, significant advances have been made in our understanding of the molecular biology of pancreatic ductal carcinoma, with pancreatic cancer now considered one of the ...

Endocrine and intermediate cells in pancreatic ductal carcinoma and in chronic pancreatitis.

Roczniki Akademii Medycznej w Bialymstoku (1995), 2003
As most pancreatic ductal carcinomas have the genotype of ductal epithelial cells it is believed that they originate from the epithelium of these structures. It has been proved that endocrine cells are frequently present in ductal carcinoma. Morphological, immunohistochemical, ultrastructural evaluation and statistical analysis revealed the presence of

[Intraductal intraepithelial neoplasia and ductal pancreatic carcinoma].

Arkhiv patologii, 2006
The review of modern achievements in morphology and genetic characteristics of pancreatic tumors with ductal phenotype is presented. Problems of intraductal pancreatic neoplasia (PanIN) as precancerous process for ductal adenocarcinoma are considered in detail.

The molecular genetics of pancreatic ductal carcinoma: a review.

Surgical oncology, 2001
In the last several years, numerous advances in the field of molecular genetics have been applied to pancreatic ductal carcinoma- the 5th leading cause of cancer death in the United States. This review summaries the current knowledge about adenocarcinoma of the pancreas.

Pen2/ErbB4 signaling regulates stemness of pancreatic ductal carcinoma

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are critical for progression, invasion, metastasis, and chemotherapy resistance of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Presenilin enhancer 2 (Pen2), a vital component of the gamma-secretase complex, is overexpressed in various cancers and plays a significant role in carcinogenesis.

Relevant factors in the prognosis of ductal pancreatic carcinoma.

Acta chirurgica Scandinavica, 1991
Because it is important to assess relevant prognostic factors when deciding which patients will profit from pancreatic resection and which will not, 484 patients with ductal pancreatic carcinoma who were operated on between 1 January 1978 and 31 December 1987 in the Department of General and Abdominal Surgery of Mainz Medical School were studied ...
