Sadeghlar et al. showed that CD40L transduction in human DC increased its function and proliferation, even in the presence of a pancreatic cancer cell in co-culture [155], and Kim et al. reported that cetuximab-conjugated maleimide-polyethylene glycol-chlorin e6 induced pancreatic cancer cell death, which was accompanied by DC activation and maturation [156]. This evidence concerns the gene CD40LG and familial pancreatic carcinoma.
