The Expression Profile and Textural Characteristics of C595-Reactive MUC1 in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma for Targeted Radionuclide Therapy.

ABSTRACT: Improvements in the prognosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) rely on the development of effective treatments to target advanced disease. Mucin 1 (MUC1) is a transmembrane glycoprotein which is involved in the metastatic progression of PDAC and is a receptor-of-interest for targeted radionuclide therapy. The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of MUC1-based targeted radionuclide therapy for PDAC, by evaluating the expression profile of MUC1 in different pancreatic cells and tissues using the C595 antibody. MUC1 expression was evaluated in four PDAC cell lines (PANC-1, BxPC-3, CAPAN-1 and AsPC-1) using flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry. Immunohistochemistry was performed on primary and metastatic PDAC, pancreatitis, pancreatic intra-epithelial neoplasia and no
