Pancreatic ductal carcinoma (PDC) remains one of the most intractable human malignancies, mainly because of the lack of sensitive detection methods. Although gene expression profiling by DNA microarray analysis is a promising tool for the development of such detection systems, a simple comparison of pancreatic tissues may yield misleading data that reflect only differences in cellular composition. To directly compare PDC cells with normal pancreatic ductal cells, we purified MUC1-positive epithe ...[more]
