Abstract:SummaryIn pancreatic cancer, emerging evidence suggests that PPAR-δ overexpression is associated with tumor progression and metastasis, but a mechanistic link is still missing. Here we now show that PPAR-δ acts as the integrating upstream regulator for the metabolic rewiring, which is preceding the subsequent initiation of an invasive/metastatic program. Specifically, paracrine and metabolic cues regularly found in the metastasis-promoting tumor stroma consistently enhance, via induction of PPAR-δ activity, th… Show more
