A transcriptionally distinct subpopulation of healthy acinar cells exhibit features of pancreatic progenitors and PDAC
2021-01-05
Abstract excerpt
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tumors can originate either from acinar or ductal cells in the adult pancreas. We re-analyze multiple pancreas and PDAC single-cell RNA-seq datasets and find a subset of non-malignant acinar cells, which we refer to as acinar edge (AE) cells, whose transcriptomes highly diverge from a typical acinar cell in each dataset. Genes up-regulated among AE cells are enriched for tra...
