Emerging Horizons in the Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cancer: The Role of Circulating microRNAs as Early Detection Biomarkers for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive cancer with a poor prognosis, primarily due to a late diagnosis. Recent studies have focused on identifying non-invasive biomarkers for early detection, with microRNAs (miRNAs) emerging as promising candidates. This systematic review aims to evaluate the potential of circulating miRNAs as biomarkers for the early detection of PDAC, analyzing their diagnostic accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity.

Characterization of Prochloraz Resistance in from Heilongjiang Province in China.

Prochloraz is widely used to control rice bakanae disease caused by . The current study was aimed at monitoring the development of resistance to prochloraz in the Heilongjiang Province and analyzing the fitness of strains with different resistance levels. The results indicated that most of the 89 strains collected from the Heilongjiang Province were resistant to prochloraz, with resistance frequency reaching 92.
