Drug-Induced p53 Activation Limits Pancreatic Cancer Initiation
Abstract Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal disease, initiated predominantly by mutations in Kras, which induce acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM) and subsequent formation of precursor lesions, such as pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN).
Drug-Induced p53 Activation Promotes Acinar Cell Identity and Prevents Pancreatic Cancer Initiation
Abstract Pancreatitis is a painful inflammatory disease that carries an increased risk of developing pancreatic cancer. Patients with this disease experience acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM), a process in which their pancreatic acinar cells dedifferentiate into a more ductal-like state. Metaplastic cells can proliferate and repopulate the pancreas before redifferentiating into functional acini.
Implementation and Uptake of Rural Lung Cancer Screening
Abstract Objective Given the higher rates of tobacco use along with increased mortality specific to lung cancer in rural settings, low-dose CT (LDCT)-based lung cancer screening could be particularly beneficial to such populations. However, limited radiology facilities and increased geographical distance, combined with lower income and education along with reduced patient engagement, present heightened barriers to screening initiation and adherence.

The effect of deadlines on cancer screening completion: a randomized controlled trial
Abstract Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. Although screening facilitates prevention and early detection and is one of the most effective approaches to reducing cancer mortality, participation is low—particularly among underserved populations. In a large, preregistered field experiment (n = 7711), we tested whether deadlines—both with and without monetary incentives tied to them—increase colorectal cancer (CRC) screening.
Failure to Disclose COI a Systemic Problem
