Abstract

Pancreatic cancer continues to be one of the world's most lethal cancers. Chemotherapy resistance in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer often accompany with dismal prognosis, highlighting the need to investigate mechanisms of drug resistance and develop therapies to overcome chemoresistance. This research was filed with the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2200061320). In order to isolate primary normal fibroblasts (NFs) and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) samples of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and paracancerous pancreatic tissue from individuals diagnosed with PDAC were obtained. The exosomes were obtained using ultracentrifugation, and their characteristics were determined by…
