Objective: This study aimed to investigate the role of tRNA-derived RNA fragment tRF-Pro-CGG in pancreatic cancer (PC), focusing on its expression levels in PC tissues and cell lines, and its effects on cell proliferation, clonality, migration, invasion, and apoptosis. Additionally, the study explored the potential of tRF-Pro-CGG as a diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target in PC.
Methods: The expression levels of tRF-Pro-CGG in PC tissues and cell lines were analyzed using next-generation sequencing and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR).
