| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Previous studies indicated that pancreatic and duodenal juice samples are an excellent source of mutant DNA from the pancreas and have the potential to help in the risk stratification and surveillance of patients undergoing pancreatic screening. To identify novel genetic alterations specific to high grade precursors, we conducted an exome sequencing analysis. Mutations at NOTCH2, AFF3, EXT1, IL21R and CDH6 were frequently found in the high grade pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasias and ductal adenocarcinoma, but not normal ducts, indicating that these are promising markers for early detection of pancreatic cancer. We employed two highly-sensitive methods, Cast PCR and digital HRM, to detect less abundance of mutation and successfully detect 0.1% of mutant alleles. One or more of NOTCH2, AFF3, EXT1, IL21R and CDH6 mutations were found in the cystic fluids from high grade intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs), whereas no mutations were seen in those from low grade IPMNs.
