ABSTRACT: Objective
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly malignant gastrointestinal cancer with a 5-year survival rate of only 9%. Of PDAC patients, 15%-20% are eligible for radical surgery. Gemcitabine is an important chemotherapeutic agent for patients with PDAC; however, the efficacy of gemcitabine is limited due to resistance. Therefore, reducing gemcitabine resistance is essential for improving survival of patients with PDAC. Identifying the key target that determines gemcitabine resistance in PDAC and reversing gemcitabine resistance using target inhibitors in combination with gemcitabine are crucial steps in the quest to improve survival prognosis in patients with PDAC.Methods
We constructed a human genome-wide CRISPRa/dCas 9 overexpression library in PDAC cell
