OBJECTIVES: Aberrant hypomethylation of long interspersed nucleotide element-1 (LINE-1) and satellite alpha (SATa) in pancreatic cancer cells increases malignant potential. In addition, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is likely to be associated with micrometastasis and appears more frequently in advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients. In this study, we elucidated the relationship between these...
