Further, we found that key nodes of regulation by our confirmed hits in this interaction map were known molecules that modulate survival, EMT and drug resistance in Ras mutated pancreatic cancers, such as YAP1 [41, 42], SIRT1 [43, 44], BAG3 [45, 46], ILK [47–49], CDK5 [50–52], HDACs or GSK3β [53, 54]. The gene discussed is BAG3; the disease is familial pancreatic carcinoma.
