Pancreatic cancer cell exosomal microRNA as diagnostic marker
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Pancreatic cancer has a dismal prognosis partly due to late diagnosis, where a reliable non-invasive diagnosis is urgently wanted. We here explored, whether serum-derived PaCa exosomes may provide a diagnostic means and microRNA may be advantageous. Exosomes were collected from the serum of 133 patients with pancreatic cancer, 22 patients with non-malignant pancreatic tumors, 25 patients with chronic pancreatitis and 20 healthy donors. Exosomes were isolated by ultracentrifugation and used qRT-PCR for miRNA quantification and miRCURY LNA microRNA Array for miRNA analysis.
