Pancreatic cancer arises from noninvasive precursor lesions, including pancreatic
intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN), intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN), and …

Pancreatic cystic lesions are increasingly detected in cross-sectional imaging. Intraductal
papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is a mucin-producing subtype of the pancreatic cyst …

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal human cancers. Early detection and diagnosis of
precursor lesions for pancreatic malignancy is essential to improve the morbidity and …

Pancreatic surveillance can detect early-stage pancreatic cancer and achieve long-term
survival, but currently involves annual endoscopic ultrasound and MRI/MRCP, and is …

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is one of the most lethal human cancers. Its precursor
lesions include pancreatic intra-epithelial neoplasia, mucinous cystic neoplasm, and …

Telomerase is associated with cellular aging, and its presence limits cellular lifespan.
Telomerase by preventing telomere shortening can extend the number of cell divisions for …

A significant proportion of patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs)
undergo surgical resection in order to prevent or treat pancreatic cancer at the risk of …

About 10% of all tumors, including most lower-grade astrocytoma, rely on the alternative
lengthening of telomere (ALT) mechanism to resolve telomeric shortening and avoid …

Background With increasing use and enhanced accuracy of cross-sectional imaging, the
diagnosis of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) of the pancreas has …

Simple Summary Pancreatic cysts represent a category of lesions that arise in the pancreas
with the potential to transform into cancer. Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms …
