Abstract excerpt
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal cancer marked by poor prognosis and frequent gain-of-function mutations in the TP53 tumor suppressor gene. Given the crucial role of mutant p53 in the context of metabolic reprogramming and aggressive tumor behavior, we explored its role on mitochondria, which may present a valuable therapeutic target. In this study, we characterized the unique...
