Genomic Stability Thresholds and DPY30 as a Biomarker in Pancreatic Cancer

Even cancer cells require a certain threshold of genetic stability, crossing which can render them vulnerable to elimination. This study identifies a potential biomarker of genomic stability in pancreatic cancers (DPY30), loss of which leads to chromosomal instability and T cell mediated clearance of cells with complex karyotypes.”

Dr. Anirban Maitra serves as Professor of Pathology and Translational Molecular Pathology at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center since August 2013, and directs the Sheikh Ahmed Pancreatic Cancer Research Center. He leads an NCI-funded laboratory dedicated to pancreatic cancer research, focusing on genetics and molecular pathology in human and mouse models. His research aims to advance early detection and interception strategies to enhance patient survival rates in pancreatic cancer.
