Risk of the Watch-and-Wait Concept in Surgical Treatment of Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm.
Importance The natural history of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) remains uncertain. The inconsistencies among published guidelines preclude accurate decision-making.

Lipid metabolism in pancreatic cancer: emerging roles and potential targets
Abstract Pancreatic cancer is one of the most serious health issues in developed and developing countries, with a 5‐year overall survival rate currently <9%. Patients typically present with advanced disease due to vague symptoms or lack of screening for early cancer detection.

Role of circulating exosomal biomarkers and their diagnostic accuracy in pancreatic cancer
This systematic review aims to evaluate the current literature involving pancreatic cancer patient groups in search of highly accurate exosomal biomarkers. We reviewed 9 studies which involved 565 participants (331 PC and 234 controls). The mRNA panel (ARG1, CD63, CK18, Erbb3, GAPDH, H3F3A, KRAS, and ODC1) and GPC1 reported the highest performing ...

The impact of race/ethnicity on pancreaticoduodenectomy outcomes for pancreatic cancer
Abstract Purpose To investigate the impact of race/ethnicity on surgical outcomes following pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic cancer. Methods A retrospective review of patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy for adenocarcinoma in the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database from 2014 to 2019.

Simple Summary The management of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas (IPMN) remains controversial due to the relatively high rate of unnecessary surgery for low grade dysplasia (LGD) despite the last international recommendations ...

Development of extrahepatic bile ducts and mechanisms of tumorigenesis: Lessons from mouse models
Abstract The biliary system is a highly branched tubular network consisting of intrahepatic bile ducts (IHBDs) and extrahepatic bile ducts (EHBDs). IHBDs are derived from hepatic progenitor cells, while EHBDs originate directly from the endoderm through a separate branching morphogenetic process.

Neural Transformers for Intraductal Papillary Mucosal Neoplasms (IPMN) Classification in MRI images [PDF]
Early detection of precancerous cysts or neoplasms, i.e., Intraductal Papillary Mucosal Neoplasms (IPMN), in pancreas is a challenging and complex task, and it may lead to a more favourable outcome. Once detected, grading IPMNs accurately is also necessary, since low-risk IPMNs can be under surveillance program, while high-risk IPMNs have to be ...

BACKGROUND & AIMS Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are regarded as precursors of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAs), but little is known about the mechanism of progression. This makes it challenging to assess cancer risk in patients

Magnetic wire active microrheology of human respiratory mucus [PDF]
Mucus is a viscoelastic gel secreted by the pulmonary epithelium in the tracheobronchial region of the lungs. The coordinated beating of cilia moves mucus upwards towards pharynx, removing inhaled pathogens and particles from the airways. The efficacy of this clearance mechanism depends primarily on the rheological properties of mucus.

Glucose metabolism of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) of the pancreas is unclear. S6 ribosomal protein (S6) phosphorylation is involved not only in controlling cell growth but also in glucose metabolism in cancer.
