PELI1: key players in the oncogenic characteristics of pancreatic Cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a highly malignant gastrointestinal tumor, which is characterized by difficulties in early diagnosis, early metastasis, limited therapeutic response and a grim prognosis. Therefore, it is imperative to explore potential therapeutic targets for PC. Currently, although the involvement of the Pellino E3 Ubiquitin Protein Ligase 1 (PELI1) in the human growth of some malignant tumors has been demonstrated, its association with PC remains uncertain.

Methods

Bioinformatics, qRT-PCR, Western blot and IHC were used to detect the expression of PELI1 in pancreas or PC tissues and cells at mRNA and protein levels. The effects of PELI1 on the proliferation and metastatic ability of pancreatic cancer in vitro and in vivo were investigated using CCK8, c
