Sulfated Disaccharides Repair Toxic Protein Gain-of-Function, a New Approach to Treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
As normal cells undergo abnormal proliferation, morphological changes, and eventually transform into cancer, there is a transitional phase known as "precancerous lesions" in pathology. Pancreatic Intraepithelial Neoplasia (PanIN) is the most common and earliest form of precancerous lesion in pancreatic cancer. Current literature indicates that over 90% of PanINs and pancreatic cancer cases exhibit mutations in the KRAS gene. However, can the mutation of the KRAS gene alone drive the early formation of PanINs? Certainly, "there is more than one truth."
