摘要: Pancreatic cancer (PC) is the fourth leading cause of related deaths in U.S., with a less than 6% five-year survival rate. Treatment confounded by advanced stage disease at presentation, frequent metastasis to distant organs time diagnosis and resistance conventional chemotherapy. In addition, molecular pathogenesis unclear. The extensive study miRNAs over past several years has revealed that are frequently de-regulated pancreatic contribute aggressiveness disease. Several studies have tackled practical difficulties application as viable therapeutic diagnostic tools. Given single miRNA can affect myriad cellular processes, successful targeting agents could likely yield dramatic results. current review attempts summarize advances field assesses prospects for profiling aiding PC treatment.
