    摘要: The current invention pertains to miRNAs that are differentially expressed in samples of an individual having pancreatic cancer, or having a high risk of developing pancreatic cancer, as compared to the corresponding sample of an individual not having pancreatic cancer, or having low risk of developing pancreatic cancer, respectively. In certain embodiments, the miRNAs are differentially expressed in a tissue sample or blood plasma sample of an individual having a pancreatic lesion and having a high risk of developing pancreatic cancer as compared to the corresponding tissue sample or blood sample of an individual having the pancreatic lesion and having no risk or low risk of developing pancreatic cancer. These differentially expressed miRNAs can be used as biomarkers for diagnosis, treatment, and/or prevention of pancreatic cancer, particularly, in a subject having a pancreatic lesion. Microarray containing miRNAs indicative of the presence of pancreatic cancer, or having a high risk of pancreatic cancer development, particularly, in a subject having a pancreatic lesion, and methods of use of the microarrays are also provided.

    摘要: Disclosed are compositions and methods for gene transfer in immune effector cells, e.g. to create chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). In particular, polypeptides are disclosed that comprising an antigen-binding region and a heparin binding domain, wherein the antigen-binding region is capable of specifically binding to an immune cell antigen located on an immune effector cell, and wherein the heparin binding domain is capable of binding a viral vector.
