Since Rac1 is a key mediator of EMT in pancreatic cancer, and it has been shown that the Rac1-related isoform, Rac1b, acts as an endogenous inhibitor of Rac1 in TGFβ signalling, we analyzed Rac1b and Rac1 + Rac1b expression in PRP treated cells by RTqPCR. This evidence concerns the gene TGFB1 and pancreatic neoplasm.
