Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Pancreatic cancer is one of the most intractable of cancers. However, the comprehensive view of somatic mutations in this tumor is far from clear. The tyrosine kinase (TK) gene family, which encodes important regulators of various signal transduction pathways, is one of the most frequently altered gene families in human cancer. METHODS: To clarify the somatic mutation profile of TKs in pancreatic...
