Abstract excerpt
This study aimed to investigate the mutations in the serine protease 1 gene (PRSS1) and the imbalance between trypsin and α1-antitrypsin in patients with pancreatic cancer. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed to amplify the sequences of PRSS1 from 65 patients with pancreatic cancer and 260 healthy controls, direct sequencing was performed, and the clinical features were analyzed. In addition,...
