Core Tip
Core Tip: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is a gastrointestinal cancer with high incidence and bleak outcomes. The molecular pathways involved in the pathogenesis of the disease have been increasingly clarified in recent years. This article reviews the role of proteostasis regulation through the proteasome in pancreatic cancer. Major molecular pathways affected in pancreatic cancer closely interconnect with regulators of the proteasome.
