Abstract

The metastatic progression of pancreatic cancer is greatly attributed to the intercellular communication. It has found serine protease 1 (PRSS1) mutations associated with pancreatic cancer and hereditary pancreatitis. In the long-time “injury-inflammation-cancer” pathway has more and more evidences to support. This review describes the factors closely related to hereditary pancreatitis from the genetic level and how to develop from pancreatitis to pancreatic cancer.
