Proteomic Mucin Profiling for the Identification of Cystic Precursors of Pancreatic Cancer
1 Feb 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) are increasingly frequent radiological incidentalomas, with a considerable proportion representing precursors of pancreatic cancer. Better diagnostic tools are required for patients to benefit from this development. METHODS: To evaluate whether cyst fluid mucin expression could predict malignant potential and/or transformation in PCLs, a proteomic method was devised...
