Adenocarcinoma News and Research

RSS

Adenocarcinoma is cancer that begins in cells that line certain internal organs and that have gland-like (secretory) properties.

Study investigates how loss of angulin-1/LSR affects the malignancy of lung adenocarcinoma

A new research paper was published in Oncotarget's Volume 14 on March 24, 2023, entitled, "Downregulation of angulin-1/LSR induces malignancy via upregulation of EGF-dependent claudin-2 and TGF-β-dependent cell metabolism in human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells."

Advanced pancreatic cancer model more accurately depicts PDAC tumor progression

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), is highly aggressive and lethal. It is the most prevalent type of pancreatic cancer, making up 90% of cases; it also has a high rate of metastasis, with an average five-year survival rate of less than 10%.
