TL;DR: The findings obtained indicate that Panc1 CSCs are characterized by upregulation of glycolysis, pentose phosphate pathway, pyruvate-malate cycle, and lipid metabolism and by downregulation of Krebs cycle, spliceosome and non-homologous end joining.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that inhibition of UCP2 triggers Akt/mTOR pathway in a ROS‐dependent mechanism in pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells, creating the conditions for the synergistic counteraction of cancer cell growth with the mTOR inhibitor everolimus.

TL;DR: This review summarises the current knowledge of EMT induction in cancer by paracrine or autocrine mechanisms, by exosomes or free proteins and miRNAs.
