Bile accelerates carcinogenic processes in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells through the overexpression of MUC4

Abstract Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the leading causes of mortality rate globally and is usually associated with obstructive jaundice (OJ). Up to date, there is no clear consensus on whether biliary decompression should be performed prior to surgery and how high levels of serum bile affects th...

Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to determine the serum concentrations of BAs. The effects of BAs on tumour progression were investigated using different assays.

In PDAC + OJ patients, MUC4 expression was higher and the 4-year survival rate was lower compare to PDAC patients. Silencing of MUC4 decreased BAs-induced carcinogenic processes in PDAC cells. Our results show that BAs promote carcinogenic process in PDAC cells, in which the increased expression of MUC4 plays an important role.
