pubmed:abstractText
Cigarette smoking is among the few unequivocal risk factors for the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Activating mutations in codon 12 of the K-ras protooncogene is a frequent and early molecular event in the pathogenesis of PDAC and a variety of nonmalignant ductal pancreatic lesions. The molecular epidemiologic relation between heavy cigarette smoking and mutational activation of K-ras in PDAC has been examined to a limited extent. The authors have examined the mutational status of K-ras in nonneoplastic pancreata in relation to cigarette smoking status.
