Diet predisposes to pancreatic cancer through cellular nutrient sensing pathways

Abstract:Pancreatic cancer is a lethal disease with limited effective treatments. A deeper understanding of its molecular mechanisms is crucial to reduce incidence and mortality. Epidemiological evidence suggests a link between diet and disease risk, though dietary recommendations for at‐risk individuals remain debated. Here, we propose that cell‐intrinsic nutrient sensing pathways respond to specific diet‐derived cues to facilitate oncogenic transformation of pancreatic epithelial cells. This review explores how diet … Show more
