Mutations in the pancreatic secretory enzymes CPA1 and CPB1 are associated with pancreatic cancer
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Much of the inherited susceptibility to pancreatic cancer remains unexplained. Germline variants that cause protein misfolding and impaired secretion of pancreatic enzymes such as CPA1 (encoding carboxypeptidase A1) can cause pancreatic acinar cell endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. We investigated the hypothesis that pancreatic cancer could arise from germline variants in genes encoding pancreatic secretory enzymes that induce pancreatic acinar cell stress. We find ∼1% of 1,579 patients with pancreatic cancer vs. 1 of 2,012 controls have germline variants in the genes encoding CPA1 and CPB1 (carboxypeptidase B1) that impair secretion of its protein product and induce ER stress. These findings implicate pancreatic acinar cell stress as a mechanism of pancreatic cancer susceptibility.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
