## Abstract Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is a disease with high mortality for which chronic pancreatitis confers a markedly increased risk. We hypothesize that chromosome instability and genomic damage occur in preβneoplastic pancreatic ductal epithelium, and that this damage may be related to oxidati
Our experiments were designed to identify initial biochemical and biological changes that occur during pancreatic carcinogenesis. TAKA-1, an immortal hamster pancreatic ductal cell line, was treated in vitro for up to 11 weeks with the pancreatic carcinogen N-nitorosobis(2-oxopropyl)amine (BOP). The
## Abstract ## Background The strongest risk factors for pancreatic adenocarcinoma are tobacco smoking and increasing age. However, only a few smokers or elderly individuals develop the disease and genetic factors are also likely to be important. ## Methods The literature on genetic factors modi
