  • Publication number: 20250122579
    Abstract: The current invention pertains to miRNAs that are differentially expressed in samples of an individual having pancreatic cancer, or having a high risk of developing pancreatic cancer, as compared to the corresponding sample of an individual not having pancreatic cancer, or having low risk of developing pancreatic cancer, respectively. In certain embodiments, the miRNAs are differentially expressed in a tissue sample or blood plasma sample of an individual having a pancreatic lesion and having a high risk of developing pancreatic cancer as compared to the corresponding tissue sample or blood sample of an individual having the pancreatic lesion and having no risk or low risk of developing pancreatic cancer. These differentially expressed miRNAs can be used as biomarkers for diagnosis, treatment, and/or prevention of pancreatic cancer, particularly, in a subject having a pancreatic lesion.
