Immunocytochemical Analysis of Stem Cell Markers in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
OCT4 expression is a specific biomarker for PDAC. Its increased expression signified PDAC progression and CD24 activation in a subset of PDAC. KRAS mutants have lower OCT4 expression, suggesting an alternative mechanism for cancer progression than that in OCT4 positive PDAC.
