Abstract:Purpose
Pancreatitis is one of the most important risk factors for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). PDAC is a silent, aggressive malignancy that has less than 5% survival rate at 5 years. Detection at early stage and resection of PDAC significantly improves survival. A differentially expressed microRNA panel was sought that could predict the risk of progression to PDAC from pancreatitis.
Methods
Differentially expressed microRNA (DEM) in serum that were common between pancreatitis and PDAC were extract… Show more
