Aliphatic Poly(Carbonate)s with Acid Responsive Release Mechanisms for Micellar Anti‐Tumor Drug Delivery

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Micellar systems based on biodegradable aliphatic polycarbonates and acid‐responsive triggers enhance drug solubility, stability, and tumor‐selective release. This review covers micelles with acid‐cleavable drug linkages and those that disassemble via acid‐sensitive functionalities.

Gemcitabine Overcomes Erlotinib Resistance in EGFR-Overexpressing Cancer Cells through Downregulation of Akt

open access: yesJournal of Cancer, 2011
A phase III clinical trial showed gemcitabine chemotherapy combined with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor erlotinib significantly improved overall survival in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer.

CRISPR‐Based Gene Dependency Screens Reveal Mechanism of BRAF Inhibitor Resistance in Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer

open access: yesMolecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is the most aggressive form of thyroid cancer. Despite recent advances in treating BRAFV600E‐driven ATC, therapy resistance remains a significant challenge, often resulting in disease progression and death.

Addressing the distressing: Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy mitigates abdominal symptoms and weight loss during chemotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer: A prospective study

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pancreatic enzyme insufficiency (PEI) contributes to symptom burden and malnutrition in advanced pancreatic cancer (aPC). We aimed to evaluate the impact of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) on symptom burden and weight during chemotherapy.

PPAR-alpha: a novel target in pancreatic cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Current targeted therapies in pancreatic cancer have been ineffective. The tumor stroma, including intra- and peri-tumoral inflammation and fibrosis, is increasingly implicated in pancreatic cancer.

Whole‐transcriptome sequencing analyses identified exosomal circular RNAs in the plasma of pancreatic cancer patients as novel blood‐based biomarkers of disease

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Pancreatic cancer (PaCa) has a poor prognosis, with low resection rates and high relapse rates, highlighting the urgent need for novel diagnostic biomarkers. Here, we performed whole‐transcriptome sequencing of plasma‐derived exosomes from PaCa patients and identified several differentially expressed circular RNAs (circRNAs).

Inhibition of PHF1 promotes ferroptosis via IRES‐dependent Snail translation regulation in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
PHF1 is a known epigenetic regulator involved in transcriptional silencing in cancer. In this study, we identified PHF1 as an oncogene that promotes PDAC progression and demonstrated that its inhibition induces ferroptosis. Mechanistically, PHF1 physically interacts with the FBL/NOP56/NOP58 snoRNP complex to enhance the IRES‐dependent translation of ...

EGR1 mediates MDR1 transcriptional activity regulating gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesBMC Cancer
Background Gemcitabine is a cornerstone drug for the treatment of all stages of pancreatic cancer and can prolong the survival of patients with pancreatic cancer, but resistance to gemcitabine in pancreatic cancer patients hinders its efficacy.
