Pancreatic acinar cell fate relies on system xC- to prevent ferroptosis during stress Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Acinar cell dedifferentiation is one of the most notable features of acute and chronic pancreatitis. It can also be the initial step that facilitates pancreatic cancer development. In the present study, we further decipher the precise mechanisms and regulation using primary human cells and murine experimental models. Our RNAseq analysis indicates that, in both species, early acinar cell dedifferentiation is accompanied by multiple pathways ...
