ror2 regulates cellular plasticity in pancreatic neoplasia and adenocarcinoma

Research Report: The Regulatory Role of ROR2 in Pancreatic Cancer Cell Plasticity Background Introduction Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a deadly disease with most patients lacking the possibility of a cure. This is partly due to the difficulty in early detection. One of the characteristics of PDAC is its extensive tumor cell heterogene...
