Résumé

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is highly malignant with a very poor prognosis due to its silent development and metastatic profile with a 5-year survival rate below 10%. PDAC is characterised by an abundant desmoplastic stroma modulation that influences cancer development by extracellular matrix/cell interactions. Elastin is a key element of the extracellular matrix. Elastin degradation products (EDPs) regulate numerous biological processes such as cell proliferation, migration and invasion. The aim of the present study was to characterise for the first time the effect of two EDPs with consensus sequences "GxxPG" and "GxPGxGxG" (VG-6 and AG-9) on PDAC development. The ribosomal protein SA (RPSA) has been discovered recently, acting as a new receptor of EDPs on the surface of tumour cells, contributing to poor prognosis.
