Abstract:<div>Abstract<p>Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) has a 5-year survival rate of less than 5%, and therapeutic advances have been hampered by gaps in our understanding of cell-cycle control in the adult pancreas. Previously, we reported that basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) transcription factors regulate cell fate specification in the pancreas. In the present study, we found that a repressor of bHLH activity, Id3, was profoundly upregulated in ductal cells in murine models of pancreatitis and panc… 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.
