ALDH1A1 and familial pancreatic carcinoma: While the ALDEFLUOR-positive rates in the pancreatic cancer cell lines CAPAN-1, DAN-G, Panc1, and L3.6pl are 2.4–8.5%44, which is equivalent to those found in pancreatic cancer tissues, a comparison of 6 pancreatic cancer cell lines (BxPC3, T3M4, PANC1, SU8686, Colo-357, and AsPC-1) and 1 noncancerous pancreatic cell line (ACBRI) revealed a differential expression pattern for ALDH1A1 mRNA.94
