PKD-1 Signaling Is Required for the Maintenance of CSCs with Epithelial-mesenchymal Plasticity in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors
2022-02-19
Abstract excerpt
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) are extremely heterogeneous and highly vascularized neoplasms that arise from endocrine cells in the pancreas. pNETs harbor a subpopulation of stem cell-like cancer cells (cancer stem cells/CSCs), which contribute to intratumoral heterogeneity and promote tumor maintenance and recurrence. In this study we demonstrated that CSCs in human pNETs co-expressed PKD-1 and CD44. We...
