Additionally, low RACK1 expression was involved in pancreatic cancer growth and metastasis, and significantly correlated with metastasis, invasion of nerves as well as TNM stage; especially 3-year survival rate of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients with high RACK1 expression was significantly higher than those patients with low ones 39. The gene discussed is RACK1; the disease is pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
