Abstract excerpt
The generation of genetically engineered pig models that develop pancreas-specific tumors has the potential to advance studies and our understanding of pancreatic cancer in humans. TP53 mutation causes organ-nonspecific cancers, and PDX1-knockout results in the loss of pancreas development. The aim of the present study was to generate a PDX1-knockout pig chimera carrying pancreas complemented by TP53 mutant cells...
