Organoid Models of Human and Mouse Ductal Pancreatic Cancer

Sylvia F. Boj, +73 more
- 15 Jan 2015 - 
TL;DR: Comprehensive transcriptional and proteomic analyses of murine pancreatic organoids revealed genes and pathways altered during disease progression that demonstrate that organoids are a facile model system to discover characteristics of this deadly malignancy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of unique neoantigen qualities in long-term survivors of pancreatic cancer.

Vinod P. Balachandran, +151 more
- 23 Nov 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used genetic, immunohistochemical and transcriptional immunoprofiling, computational biophysics, and functional assays to identify T-cell antigens in long-term survivors of pancreatic cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathologically and biologically distinct types of epithelium in intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms: delineation of an "intestinal" pathway of carcinogenesis in the pancreas.

TL;DR: IPNs include pathologically and biologically distinct epithelial patterns that support the existence of an intestinal pathway of carcinogenesis, and the presence of intestinal differentiation may potentially be used in prognostication and stratification of patients into appropriate treatment categories.
Journal ArticleDOI

The high-grade (WHO G3) pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor category is morphologically and biologically heterogenous and includes both well differentiated and poorly differentiated neoplasms.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that well differentiated PanNETs that are G3 by Ki67 are significantly less aggressive than bona fide poorly differentiated NECs, suggesting that the current World Health Organization G3 category is heterogenous, contains 2 distinct neoplasms, and can be further separated into well differentiatedPanNET with an elevated proliferation rate and well differentiated NEC.
