Modeling Obesity-Driven Pancreatic Carcinogenesis—A Review of Current In Vivo and In Vitro Models of Obesity and Pancreatic Carcinogenesis

Abstract: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most common pancreatic malignancy with a 5-year survival rate below 10%, thereby exhibiting the worst prognosis of all solid tumors. Increasing incidence together with a continued lack of targeted treatment options will cause PDAC to be the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the western world by 2030. Obesity belongs to the predominant risk factors for pancreatic cancer. To improve our understanding of the impact of obesity on pancreatic cancer devel… Show more

“…The exact biologic interlink between obesity and PC remains unclear. PDAC represents more than 90% of all PC cases [8,29]. PDAC develops from various precursor lesions, including mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN), intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN), and pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasms (PanIN).…”

“…Kras mutations further trigger the progression from PanIN1 to PanIN2. A positive feedback loop is created, demonstrating obesity and its tumor environment changes to be a major Kras potentiator, paving a path for prospective preventive avenues of this dismal cancer [29].…”
