Abstract B075: Sirtuin 6 histone deacetylase is required for the integrated stress response and resistance to inhibition of transcriptional cyclin dependent kinases in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
Abstract:Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDA) can be characterized by two distinct transcriptional subtypes: Classical and Basal-like. The basal PDA subtype is more aggressive and has the worst overall survival. Previous work has shown that Sirtuin 6 histone deacetylase (SIRT6) acts as a tumor suppressor and cooperates with oncogenic KRAS in GEMM models of PDA. Our study identifies SIRT6 as a biomarker for basal PDA and investigates the underlying sensitivity of basal PDA to inhibition of transcriptional cyclin depen… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
