| Research Abstract |
WEE1 mRNA expression in pancreatic cancer cell lines is higher than that in HPDE cells. Six normal pancreas tissues and 51 PDAC samples were analyzed by immunostaining. We did not find any significant association between WEE1 expression and various clinicopathologic factors in patients with pancreatic caner. There was no difference in overall survival and disease free survival between WEE1-positive and WEE1-negtive groups. Unfortunately, we did not recognize the clinical implications of Wee1 gene to the pancreatic cancer.
