Biphenotypic Differentiation of Pancreatic Cancer in 3-Dimensional Culture.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Recent studies have shown that overexpression of S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 (Skp2) occurs in many cancers at an advanced stage. We examined the clinicopathologic significance and prognostic implication of Skp2 expression in pancreatic invasive ductal carcinoma. METHODS:Tissue samples from 46 pancre...
