  • Diabetes-Driven Post-Translational Remodeling in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (2026) · doi

    Diabetes mellitus (DM), particularly Type 2 DM (T2DM), is increasingly recognized as both a risk factor and an early manifestation of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), yet the molecular mechanisms bridging these conditions remain poorly understood.
