Identification and Removal of Unexpected Proliferative Off-Target Cells Emerging after iPSC-Derived Pancreatic Islet Cell Implantation
[Proceedings Of The National Academy Of Sciences Of The United States Of America] Investigators showed that the implantation of seven-stage induced PSC-derived pancreatic islet cells led to the emergence of unexpected off-target cells with proliferative capacity via in vivo maturation.
Efficient Vascular and Neural Engraftment of Stem Cell-Derived Islets
[Diabetes] The authors investigated the engraftment capability of pluripotent stem cell-derived islets (SC-islets) at three months post-transplantation, and observed that the cell apoptosis rates were lower, but the vascular density was similar in SC-islets to that of human pancreatic islets.
Exploiting Pancreatic Cancer Metabolism: Challenges and Opportunities
[Trends In Molecular Medicine] Scientists review the impact of metabolic changes on the interplay among stromal, immune, and pancreatic tumor cells, as glutamine and branched-chain amino acids emerge as pivotal players in modulating immune cell functions and tumor growth.
Nardilysin-Regulated Scission Mechanism Activates Polo-Like Kinase 3 to Suppress the Development of Pancreatic Cancer
[Nature Communications] Researchers found that development of apoptotic resistance and metastasis of KrasG12D-driven PDAC in mice was accelerated by deleting polo-like kinase 3 (Plk3).
Examination of Wnt Signaling as a Therapeutic Target for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) Using a Pancreatic Tumor Organoid Library (PTOL)
[PLOS One] Scientists constructed patient-derived organoids derived from pancreatic tumor organoid libraries. Each pancreatic organoid demonstrated varied niche factor dependencies, providing an avenue for targeted therapy, supported through growth analysis following combinatory treatment of Wnt inhibitor and standard chemotherapy in vitro.
CDK4/6 Inhibition Sensitizes MEK Inhibition by Inhibiting Cell Cycle and Proliferation in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
[Scientific Reports] Scientists explored the effects of Trametinib on pancreatic cancer and addressed the underlying mechanism of resistance as well as its reversal strategies.
Tumor-Selective Activity of RAS-GTP Inhibition in Pancreatic Cancer
[Nature] Scientists assessed the therapeutic potential of a RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitor in a comprehensive range of PDAC models.
Transfer Learning Reveals Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts Are Associated with Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition and Inflammation in Cancer Cells in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
[Cancer Research] Scientists utilized a convergence approach to identify tumor cell and cancer associated fibroblast interactions through the integration of single-cell data from human tumors with human organoid co-culture experiments.
Understanding, Diagnosing, and Treating Pancreatic Cancer from the Perspective of Telomeres and Telomerase
[Cancer Gene Therapy] The authors review the role of telomeres and telomerase as biomarkers in the development of pancreatic cancer and the progress of research on telomeres and telomerase as targets for therapeutic intervention.
Diabetes and the Fabkin Complex: A Dual-Edged Sword
[Biochemical Pharmacology] The authors highlight the complex nature of diabetes mellitus, and explore the multifaceted role of the Fabkin complex in glucose metabolism, insulin resistance, anti-inflammation, beta cell proliferation, and vascular function.
Potential Role of Lipophagy Impairment for Anticancer Effects of Glycolysis-Suppressed Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Cells
[Cell Death Discovery] By screening anticancer metabolic compounds, investigators identified an inhibitor of lysine-specific histone demethylase 1A, which dramatically decreased the growth of PDAC and showed an anti-tumoral effect in tumor-bearing mice.
Cold-Induced FOXO1 Nuclear Transport Aids Cold Survival and Tissue Storage
[Nature Communications] Scientists revealed forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) as a key transcription factor for autonomous cold adaptation. Promoting FOXO1 nuclear entry enhanced cold tolerance in pre-diabetic obese mice, and greatly prolonged the shelf-life of human and mouse pancreatic tissues and islets.
