摘要
Areas covered in this review: Our aim is to present the Notch pathway, and to describe its involvement in pancreatic pathophysiology/carcinogenesis. This pathway appeared as a prime target for pancreatic cancer therapy. In the light of the crosstalk of Notch with other survival/embryologic pathways, drugs affecting more than one pathway may have to be combined. What the reader will gain: Drugs against gamma-secretases could thus serve in cancer treatment and can be combined with drugs targeting survival pathways interplaying with Notch such as Hedgehog. Take home message: Downregulation of Notch contributes to the inhibition and apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells whereas Hedgehog inhibition will allow for enhanced delivery of drugs to the tumor. Both pathway inhibitors appear to have synergistic effects for future therapeutics for pancreatic adenocarcinoma, once safety issues of compounds are overcome.
