A novel immune checkpoint score system for prognostic evaluation in pancreatic adenocarcinoma

open access: yesBMC Gastroenterology, 2023
Background Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) remains a lethal malignancy making the detection of novel prognostic biomarkers urgent. Limited studies have investigated the predictive capability of immune checkpoints in PAAD. Method Gene expression data and

PARP inhibitors in pancreatic cancer: molecular mechanisms and clinical applications

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2020
Pancreatic cancer is a highly lethal disease with a poor prognosis, and existing therapies offer only limited effectiveness. Mutation gene sequencing has shown several gene associations that may account for its carcinogenesis, revealing a promising ...

The Epidemiology of Pancreatitis and Pancreatic Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesGastroenterology, 2013
Acute pancreatitis is one of the most frequent gastrointestinal causes of hospital admission in the United States. Chronic pancreatitis, although lower in incidence, significantly reduces patients' quality of life. Pancreatic cancer is associated with a high mortality rate and is one of the top 5 causes of death from cancer.

Knockdown of TACC3 inhibits tumor cell proliferation and increases chemosensitivity in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2023
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly malignant digestive tract tumor with limited clinical treatments. Transforming acidic coiled-coil-containing protein 3 (TACC3) is a component of the centrosome axis and a member of the TACC family ...

The microbiota and microbiome in pancreatic cancer: more influential than expected

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2019
Microbiota is just beginning to be recognized as an important player in carcinogenesis and the interplay among microbes is greater than expected. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal disease for which mortality closely parallels ...

Deciphering the Prognostic Implications of the Components and Signatures in the Immune Microenvironment of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Background: The treatment modalities for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are limited and unsatisfactory. Although many novel drugs targeting the tumor microenvironment, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors, have shown promising efficacy for some ...

Ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis in anticancer immunity

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology, 2020
In recent years, cancer immunotherapy based on immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has achieved considerable success in the clinic. However, ICIs are significantly limited by the fact that only one third of patients with most types of cancer respond to ...

Identification of the Roles of a Stemness Index Based on mRNA Expression in the Prognosis and Metabolic Reprograming of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
BackgroundCancer stem cells (CSCs) are widely thought to contribute to the dismal prognosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). CSCs share biological features with adult stem cells, such as longevity, self-renewal capacity, differentiation, drug ...
