DNA-methylation signature accurately differentiates pancreatic cancer from chronic pancreatitis in tissue and plasma
14 Sept 2023
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a lethal malignancy. Differentiation from chronic pancreatitis (CP) is currently inaccurate in about one-third of cases. Misdiagnoses in both directions, however, have severe consequences for patients. We set out to identify molecular markers for a clear distinction between PDAC and CP. DESIGN: Genome-wide variations of DNA-methylation, messenger RNA and...
