Choroidal metastasis in pancreatic adenocarcinoma
Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is the seventh largest cause of death from cancer with a death rate of 3.8%. The 5-year survival rate is only 5%. We report A case 28 year old male presented with a 3 week history of pain in upper part of abdomen and dyspepsia of similar duration. After 2 cycles of palliative chemotherapy he presented with diminution of vision

Neuroblastoma with ovarian and pancreatic metastasis
Neuroblastoma metastasis to the pancreas and ovaries is rare. We report a 12-year-old girl diagnosed with primary left adrenal neuroblastoma and metastases to the local lymph nodes, left orbit, left ovary, and multiple bones. After 4 courses of chemotherapy, the orbital and bone metastases disappeared; the ovarian tumor remained and the lymph node ...

CCL21/CCR7 Axis Contributed to CD133+ Pancreatic Cancer Stem-Like Cell Metastasis via EMT and Erk/NF-κB Pathway. [PDF]
Tumor metastasis is driven by malignant cells and stromal cell components of the tumor microenvironment. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are thought to be responsible for metastasis by altering the tumor microenvironment. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)

Epigenetic control of pancreatic cancer metastasis
AbstractSurgical resection, when combined with chemotherapy, has been shown to significantly improve the survival rate of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). However, this treatment option is only feasible for a fraction of patients, as more than 50% of cases are diagnosed with metastasis.

Invasion and metastasis in pancreatic cancer.
Pancreatic cancer remains a challenging disease with an overall cumulative 5-year survival rate below 1%. The process of cancer initiation, progression and metastasis is still not understood well. Invasion and tumor metastasis are closely related and both occur within a tumour-host microecology, where stroma and tumour cells exchange enzymes and ...

Hmga2 is dispensable for pancreatic cancer development, metastasis, and therapy resistance. [PDF]
Expression of the chromatin-associated protein HMGA2 correlates with progression, metastasis and therapy resistance in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Hmga2 has also been identified as a marker of a transient subpopulation of PDAC cells that has

Pancreatic Metastasis from Prostate Cancer [PDF]
The pancreas is an unusual location for metastases from other primary cancers. Rarely, pancreatic metastases from kidney or colorectal cancers have been reported. However, a variety of other cancers may also spread to the pancreas. We report an exceptional case of pancreatic metastasis from prostate cancer. Differences in management between primary and

The Potential for Circulating Tumor Cells in Pancreatic Cancer Management. [PDF]
Pancreatic cancer is one the most lethal malignancies. Only a small proportion of patients with this disease benefit from surgery. Chemotherapy provides only a transient benefit.
