Carcinogenesis of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Although the estimated time for development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is more than 20 years, PDAs are usually detected at late, metastatic stages. PDAs develop from duct-like cells through a multistep carcinogenesis process, from low-grade dysplastic lesions to carcinoma in situ and eventually to metastatic disease.

Desmoplasia of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most common form of pancreatic cancer and is characterized by remarkable desmoplasia. The desmoplasia is composed of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, myofibroblastic pancreatic stellate cells, and immune cells associated with a multitude of cytokines, growth factors, and ECM metabolizing enzymes.

Familial Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), although a rare disease, has a poor prognosis. With 5-year overall survival of 8%, there is a critical need to detect PDAC early or at a premalignant stage. Current screening methods are largely imaging based, but a more focused screening approach based on modifiable and nonmodifiable risk factors may improve ...

An Immunological Glance on Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has still a dismal prognosis. Different factors such as mutational landscape, intra- and intertumoral heterogeneity, stroma, and immune cells impact carcinogenesis of PDAC associated with an immunosuppressive microenvironment. Different cell types with partly opposing roles contribute to this milieu.

Mimics of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Several uncommon primary pancreatic tumors, inflammatory conditions, metastasis to the pancreas and peripancreatic masses can mimic the appearance of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA). Differentiation between these lesions and PDA can be challenging, due to the overlap in imaging features; however, familiarity with their typical imaging features ...

Tumour–stroma interactions in an organotypic culture model of pancreatic cancer [PDF]
PhDPancreatic cancer is characterised by an intense fibrotic, or desmoplastic, stroma, which contributes to tumour progression. Three-dimensional in vitro culture models incorporating this non-tumour component may more closely recapitulate the ...

microRNA-21 Regulates Stemness in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Cells [PDF]
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most common and aggressive type of pancreatic cancer (PCa) with a low survival rate. microRNAs (miRs) are endogenous, non-coding RNAs that moderate numerous biological processes.

Pancreatic resections for advanced M1-pancreatic carcinoma : the value of synchronous metastasectomy [PDF]
Background: For M1 pancreatic adenocarcinomas pancreatic resection is usually not indicated. However, in highly selected patients synchronous metastasectomy may be appropriate together with pancreatic resection when operative morbidity is low ...

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Pancreatic and ampullary adenocarcinoma (AAC) are quite resistant to chemotherapy with high metastasis potential. Our study aimed to interpret high-mobility group A protein 2 (HMGA2) expression in benign and precursor pancreatic lesions ...
