Popis: Metastatic dissemination contributes to the lethality in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Here, the authors perform RNA-sequencing on patient derived circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and identify three major CTC subgroups, and show the therapeutic potential of targeting LIN28B/let-7 pathway to halt cancer metastasis.
