At the same time, activated PSCs had a significant effect on the expression of the glycolysis markers (pyruvate kinase M2, lactate dehydrogenase A, glucose transporter 1, hexokinase-II and monocarboxylate transporter 4; PKM2, LDHA, GLUT1, HK2 and MCT4) in normal pancreatic duct epithelial cells and pancreatic cancer cells and increased lactic acid production and glucose consumption in these two cells. The gene discussed is LDHA; the disease is pancreatic neoplasm.
