Characterization of a pancreatic cancer GWAS signal suggests PDX1 buffers stress in the exocrine pancreas

Jason W. Hoskins, Trevor A. Christensen, Daina Eiser…·Laufey Thora Amundadottir

This study identifies rs9581943 as a causal variant in a PDAC GWAS signal, showing it reduces PDX1 expression and impairs stress buffering in exocrine pancreatic cells.
