Abstract

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most metastatic malignancies worldwide. We previously identified a distinct subset of cancer stem cells within the invasive front of patient tumors called migrating cancer stem cells (miCSCs), characterized by CD133+CXCR4+ expression. It determines the metastatic phenotype of pancreatic cancer. Therefore, targeting CXCR4 represent a potential therapeutic approach to combat metastasis in PDAC.
