VIM and familial pancreatic carcinoma: However, both N-cadherin and Vimentin mRNA were significantly increased in pancreatic cancer tissues and lymph node metastases when compared with their adjacent normal pancreatic tissues, and positively correlated with miR-23a expression (r=0.473, P<0.01; r=0.665, P<0.01; Pearson correlation, Figure 2F and 2G).
