Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most malignant tumors that are difficult to diagnose at its early stage and there is no effective therapy. Recent studies uncovered that many non-protein-coding RNAs including the class of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are differentially expressed in various types of tumors and they are potent regulators of tumor progression and metastasis. LncRNA can mediate tumor initiation, proliferation, migration and metastasis through modulating epigenetic modification, alternative splicing, transcription, and protein translation. In this review, we discuss the molecular mechanism of lncRNAs in the involvement of tumor growth, survival, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, tumor microenvironment, cancer stem cells and chemoresistance in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
