Pancreatic cancer

Exosomes were collected from the conditioned media of pancreatic cancer cell lines and plasma samples of localized pancreatic cancer patients (Stage I-IIA) healthy subjects.

miR-196a and miR-1246

Diagnosis

[57]

The exosomes were collected from patients with pancreatic cancer, and patients without neoplasms (controls).

miR-191, miR-21, miR-451a

Diagnosis

[58]

Plasma RNAs were extracted from pancreatic cancer patients, chronic pancreatitis patients, and healthy controls.

miRNA-16a and miRNA-196a, together with CA19–9

Diagnosis

[62]

The plasma samples were obtained from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) patients, and healthy controls.
