Furthermore, there was a negative expression for Cyclin D1 protein in
normal ductal epithelial cells, while the benign group revealed week positivity immunostaining Cyclin D1 in 60 %, whereas, the malignant group represented a variable positivity of immunostaining scores; they were classified as 3 (10 %) cases were weak, 9 (30 %) moderate cases and 12 (40 %) strong expression cases.
Furthermore,
the normal ductal cells that are able to develop into pancreatic cancer represent about 10 percent of the cells in the pancreas, complicating efforts to pinpoint the changes that occur as the tumor develops.

(A)
Normal case: negative Cyclin D1 - immunostaining in the
ductal epithelial cells, (B) Benign case: few nuclei with weak expression of Cyclin D1 of
ductal epithelial cell, and negative one in stromal cells, (C) IDC GII case: a strong positive expression of Cyclin D1 in invasive
ductal epithelial cells and stroma, (D) IDC GIII case: moderate positive expression of Cyclin D1 in trabeculae malignant cells, and absent in the vesiculated polymorphic nuclei.
Bottom Line: Bacterial load was significantly higher in pancreatic tumor samples from patients with pancreatic
ductal adenocarcinoma compared with pancreatic tissue from
normal individuals, and in studies using mice, eliminating certain «bad» bacteria slowed the growth of pancreatic cancer, reversed immune suppression, and upregulated the immune checkpoint protein PD1.
The

normal pups.
