Pancreatic cancer is one of the most appalling cancers with a pessimistic prognosis. Despite many therapies, there has been no improvement survival rates. In this study, we assessed anti-cancer effects kaempferol, well known flavonoid having functional bio-activity against various malignant tumors. Kaempferol had on Miapaca-2, Panc-1, and SNU-213 human pancreatic cells. dose-dependent manner, kaempferol decreased viability these cells by increasing apoptosis. particular, effectively...

Abstract Pancreatic cancer remains one of the most deadly cancers, with a grave prognosis. Despite numerous endeavors to improve treatment neoplasm, limited progress has been made. In present study, we investigated role dual specificity phosphatase 28 (DUSP28) in relation anti-cancer drug sensitivity and migratory activity human pancreatic cells for first time. Analysis using Universal exPress Codes (UPCs) GEO database showed significantly higher DUSP28 mRNA expression cancers. We found that...

Abstract Pancreatic cancer remains one of the most deadly cancers with a grave prognosis. Despite continuous efforts to improve remedial values, limited progress has been made. We have reported that dual specificity phosphatase 28 (DUSP28) critical role chemo-resistance and migration in pancreatic cancers. However, its mechanism unclear. Here, we further clarify function DUSP28 Analysis using public microarray database vitro assay indicated platelet derived growth factor A (PDGF-A)...

The prognosis of pancreatic cancer has not improved despite considerable and continuous effort. Dual-specificity phosphatase 28 (DUSP28) is highly expressed in human cancers exerts critical effects. However, knowledge its function extremely limited. Here, we demonstrate the peculiar role DUSP28 cancers. Analysis using Gene Expression Omnibus public microarray database indicated higher DUSP28, MUC1, MUC4, MUC5B, MUC16 MUC20 messenger RNA (mRNA) levels compared with normal pancreas tissues....

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most dangerous cancers with high mortality rates. Despite continuous efforts, there has been limited improvement in its prognosis. In this study, we prepared fermented extract Citrus unshiu peel (fCUP) from by-product after juice processing and then examined anticancer effects fCUP on human pancreatic cells. Treatment inhibited growth cells through induction caspase-3 cleavage both vitro vivo. also blocked migration activation intracellular signaling pathways...

Understanding the effects of topographic characteristics on tumor cell migration is important for development new anti‐migratory therapies. However, simplified in vitro culture systems often lead to inaccurate results regarding efficacy drugs. Histopathologically, glioblastoma multiform (GBM) cells migrate along orientation thin, elongated anatomical structures, such as white‐matter tracts. Here, a tapered microtract array platform which mimics features brain tissue introduced. This enables...
