Abstract excerpt
Epithelial tumors of the pancreas exhibit a wide spectrum of histologies with varying propensities for metastasis and tissue invasion. The histogenic relationship among these tumor types is not well established; moreover, the specific role of genetic lesions in the progression of these malignancies is largely undefined. Transgenic mice with ectopic expression of transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-alpha) in the...
