| Core Tip |
Patients with mucinous cystic lesions (MCL), individuals with hereditary risk (HR) and patients with new-late onset diabetes mellitus represent a target for early pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) detection. Within these groups, we evaluated the capacity of glypican-1 positive (GPC1+) circulating exosomes (crExos) to identify individuals at higher risk, all characterized by endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). High levels of GPC1+ crExos are present in MCL (increased when worrisome features or high-risk stigmata are noted) and in individuals with HR (predominantly in those with history of cancer), even in absence of EUS abnormalities. GPC1 may represent a biomarker to support the diagnosis and stratification of PDAC precursor lesions, and in signaling genetic predisposition. |
