Article Abstract
Background: Pancreatic cancer remains one of the most malignant tumors, characterized by limited treatment efficacy.
Main Findings: microRNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in regulating the proliferation, invasion, migration, drug resistance, apoptosis, and cell cycle progression of pancreatic cancer cells by inhibiting tumor-associated proteins. Metscape analysis revealed that miRNA-targeted proteins associated with pancreatic cancer are enriched in processes such as cell proliferation, mitosis, and cell migration, and participate in multiple signaling pathways. These proteins primarily localize to classical pathways, including JAK/STAT, PI3K/AKT, and Wnt/β-catenin. Furthermore, gene mutations or abnormal alternative poly(A)denylation (APA) within miRNA-targeted regions can disrupt base pairing to the 3'-Untranslated Region (3'-UTR), thereby enhancing the translation of oncogenic mRNA translation.
Future Directions: Collectively, these findings indicate that multiple miRNAs act cooperatively to influence pancreatic cancer progression. Consequently, therapeutic strategies aimed at restoring the balance of the miRNA system are essential to disrupt the 'mRNA-oncogene' vicious cycle.

The ATPase caseinolytic protease X (ClpX), forming the ClpXP complex with caseinolytic protease P (ClpP), is essential for mitochondrial protein homeostasis. While ClpP targeting is a recognized anticancer strategy, the role of ClpX in cancer remains underexplored. In pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), elevated CLPX expression correlates with poor prognosis, suggesting its oncogenic function.

ancreatic cancer is an aggressive disease and often presents at an advanced stage with no curative options. The disease is often characterized by rapid progression, limited or short-lived responsiveness to standard therapies, and a profound impact on patients' quality of life. Despite advances in targeted therapies and immunotherapy, curative outcomes remain elusive for the majority of patients with advanced or high-grade disease with a 5-year survival rate of less than 10%.

This study investigates the unique syneresis (self-shrinking) behavior of N-Terminally Fmoc-protected amino acid, Fmoc-hPhe-OH (Fmoc-homo-L-phenylalanine, abbreviated in this work as hF)-based hydrogel, and its potential in environmental remediation applications. Fmoc-hPhe-OH (hF) forms a hydrogel in 50 mM phosphate buffer (PB) of pH 7.4.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive cancer with poor prognosis, partly due to cancer stem cells (CSCs) that drive progression and treatment resistance. We explored the therapeutic potential of inducing cuproptosis, a copper-dependent regulated cell death, in CSC-enriched PDAC models. Using human and murine PDAC models, we evaluated elesclomol, a copper transport enhancer.

Objective: Rigid suction-coagulation probes constrain the wrist-like articulation that is central to robotic surgery. We therefore designed a 5-mm single-use flexible suction ball coagulator (flex-SBC) with a modified core design to restore dexterity and assessed its mechanical performance and early clinical feasibility, including the effect of the common robotic gripping strategies on suction flow.
Methods: Preclinical.
