Enhanced angiogenesis and growth of 12-lipoxygenase gene-transfected MCF-7 human breast cancer cells in athymic nude mice.

abstract：:Patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) have a 5-year survival rate of 8%, the lowest of any cancer in the United States. Traditional chemotherapeutic regimens, such as gemcitabine- and fluorouracil-based regimens, often only prolong survival by months. Effective precision targeted therapy is therefore urgently...
