General description

Gemcitabineis a pyrimidine nucleoside analog of deoxycytidine. It exhibits anticancereffects against various cancers.[1]

Application

Gemcitabinehydrochloride has been used as a chemotherapeutic agent to study its effects onthe human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell line[2]It has been used as a chemotherapeutic to study its resistance inpancreatic stellate cells (PSCs)[3]It has also been used to study its effects on patient-derivedxenograft (PDX) organoids.[4]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Gemcitabine is a widely used antitumor agents in both clinics and research labs. It is an antineoplastic agent and antimetabolite.

Gemcitabine (GCB) is a first-line chemotherapeutic drug for pancreatic cancer (PCa). However, the resistance begins developing within weeks of chemotherapy. SPINK1 overexpression enhances resistance to chemotherapy. In a recent study, our laboratory established that the oleanolic acid (OA) derivative, K73-03

Patient-derived pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) organoid systems show great promise for understanding the biological underpinnings of disease and advancing therapeutic precision medicine. Despite the increased use of organoids, the fidelity of molecular features, genetic heterogeneity, and drug response to the

Drug resistance and relapse remain key challenges in pancreatic cancer. Here, we have used RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-seq, and genome-wide CRISPR analysis to map the molecular dependencies of pancreatic cancer stem cells, highly therapy-resistant cells that preferentially drive tumorigenesis
