expression defines a rare population of cells in the normal pancreas whose frequency is increased at early stages of pancreatic tumorigenesis. The identity and the precise roles of expressing cells in pancreas have been matter of debate, although evidence suggests their involvement in a number of key functions, including regeneration and neoplasia. We employed a recently developed Dclk1 reporter mouse model and single cell RNAseq analysis to define expressing cells in normal pancreas and pancreatic neoplasia.

This study was targeted at investigating the biological functions of E74-like ETS transcription factor 1 (ELF1) in pancreatic cancer (PC) and its underlying mechanism. ELF1 expression in PC tissues was detected by quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) method, EdU method and flow cytometry were used to detect the cell proliferation and apoptosis of PC cell lines after transfection.

Members of the Protein kinase D (PKD) kinase family each play important cell-specific roles in the regulation of normal pancreas functions. In pancreatic diseases PKD1 is the most widely characterized isoform with roles in pancreatitis and in induction of pancreatic cancer and its progression. PKD1 expression and activation increases in pancreatic acinar cells through macrophage secreted factors, Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) signaling, and reactive oxygen species (ROS), driving the formation of precancerous lesions.

Pancreatic cancer is a highly lethal form of malignancy that continues to pose a significant and unresolved health challenge. Doublecortin-like kinase 1 (DCLK1), a serine/threonine kinase, is found to be overexpressed in pancreatic cancer and holds promise as a potential therapeutic target for this disease. However, few potent inhibitors have been reported currently.
