Mixed pancreatic acinar cell-ductal adenocarcinoma: Complexities in diagnosis and treatment
Background: Acinar cell carcinoma of the pancreas (ACC) is a rare malignancy, accounting for approximately 1-2% of all pancreatic cancers. Up to a quarter of ACCs are estimated to contain a significant component of another histology such as ...

A33 shows similar sensitivity to but is more specific than CDX2 as an immunomarker of colorectal carcinoma [PDF]
Aims: CDX2 is widely used as a sensitive and specific immunomarker for colorectal carcinoma (CRC) but neither this sensitivity nor specificity is absolute. This study is the first known comparison of CDX1 and A33 against CDX2 as immunomarkers for CRC.

Pancreatic Acinar Cell Carcinoma in the Setting of a BRCA1 Germline Mutation
Pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma (PACC) is a rare neoplasm of the exocrine pancreas. PACC’s molecular and genetic features are poorly elucidated compared with pancreatic ductal cell carcinoma. Here, we present the patient case of a woman in her late 60s,

RelA regulates CXCL1/CXCR2-dependent oncogene-induced senescence in murine Kras-driven pancreatic carcinogenesis [PDF]
Tumor suppression that is mediated by oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) is considered to function as a safeguard during development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). However, the mechanisms that regulate OIS in PDAC are poorly understood. Here,

Expression of LDL receptor-related proteins (LRPs) in common solid malignancies correlates with patient survival [PDF]
LDL receptor-related proteins (LRPs) are transmembrane receptors involved in endocytosis, cell-signaling, and trafficking of other cellular proteins. Considerable work has focused on LRPs in the fields of vascular biology and neurobiology.

Pancreatic Metastasis of Breast Cancer: A Rare Cause of Obstructive Jaundice
The pancreas is a rare site of metastasis from malignant tumours. Pancreatic metastasis accounts for less than 5% of all pancreatic malignancies. The most common malignancies metastasizing to pancreas are the renal cell carcinoma, non-small cell lung ...
