| Core Tip |
Pancreatic cancer has a dismal prognosis with an overall five years survival less than 5%. Obesity and diabetes are risk factors of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) increasing the likelihood of its development. Agonists of one specific nuclear receptor transcription factor, the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), are currently used or evaluated for the treatment of these diseases. PPARγ is a well-known protein implicated in the regulation of metabolism, inflammation, and differentiation; standing at the cross-road of these diseases it may be a key factor linking PDAC to diabetes and obesity, a master regulator whose modulation could be the key for PDAC treatment.
