Zusammenfassung

Introduction: The nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) family of transcription factors has recently been implicated with a role in tumorigenesis. Forced expression of a constitutively active NFATc1 mutant (c.a.NFATc1) has been shown to transform immortalized murine fibroblasts in vitro, while constitutive activation of the NFAT-signaling pathway has been found in a number of human cancers, where it has been shown to contribute towards various aspects of the tumor phenotype. Aims: To explore the direct consequences of c.a.NFATc1 in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Methods: We introduced endogenous e…
