Bitter melon juice targets molecular mechanisms underlying gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic cancer cells.

abstract：:Growth factors may play a role in autocrine or paracrine growth control of tumour cells. We have now examined the expression pattern in vivo by in situ hybridization (ISH) on a series of 13 ductal adenocarcinomas of the pancreas using the non-radioactive digoxigenin system to generate specific antisense orientated rib...
