PRSS1 mutation: a possible pathomechanism of pancreatic carcinogenesis and pancreatic cancer
14 Sept 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Previous studies revealed somatic mutations of the cationic trypsinogen gene (PRSS1) in patients with chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. However, whether PRSS1 mutations trigger pancreatic cancer and/or promote malignant proliferation and metastasis in pancreatic cancer remains largely unclear, as well as the potential underlying mechanisms. METHODS: In the present study, whole-exome...
