  • Targeting of HMGA1 may be a novel therapeutic (anti-metastatic, anti-proliferative and chemosensitising) strategy to ameliorate the aggressive phenotype of pancreatic cancer cells. (bl.uk)
  • Studies using pancreatic cancer cells grown in a dish and animal models have shown that inhibiting autophagy can slow tumor growth and enhance the effects of chemotherapy. (pancan.org)
  • Here, we tested whether ALKBH6 plays a significant role in preventing alkylating DNA damage and decreasing genomic instability in pancreatic cancer cells. (frontiersin.org)
  • In pancreatic cancer cells a cytosolic metabolic enzyme, wild-type isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (wtIDH1), enables adaptation to these conditions. (nature.com)
  • These same adaptive survival pathways protect pancreatic cancer cells against chemotherapy 7 . (nature.com)
  • Knockdown of KDM1B inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells. (cancerindex.org)
  • They were recently updated to recommend germline testing for any patient with pancreatic cancer and molecular analysis of any metastatic pancreatic tumor. (jnccn.org)
  • These textural alterations may be the result of molecular changes that take place as pancreatic cancer progresses. (azorobotics.com)
  • This study aimed to determine whether ambient air pollutant exposures are associated with the survival of patients with lung cancer. (bmj.com)
  • Although progress has been made in each area, lung cancer survival remains stubbornly poor, suggesting that novel approaches are needed. (bmj.com)
