    Eukaryotic elongation factor 2 kinase (eEF2K) is overexpressed in cancer cells and its overexpression is correlated with poor prognosis in several types of cancer. It has been known that pancreatic cancer (PaCa) has a unique tumor microenvironment (TME) which contributes all stages of tumorigenesis. In this study, the effects of interaction between PaCa cells and macrophages on eEF2K levels and aggressive tumor behaviours were investigated.

    Identification of microenvironmental regulation and therapeutic targeting of ongenic EF-2 kinase in pancreatic cancer
    (Science Direct, 2018) Karakaş Zeybek, Didem; Kahraman, Nermin; Bayraktar, Recep; Kabil, Nashwa; Ulukaya, Engin; Dere, Egemen; Lopez-Berestein, Gabriel; Özpolat, Bülent
    Introduction Pancreatic cancer (PaCa) is one of the most aggressive and deadliest cancer with 6 months average survival rate. Recent studies indicate that the tumour microenvironment (TME) plays an important role in all stages of tumorigenesis in PaCa. Therefore, both tumour cells and their TME should be targeted for an effective treatment. Eukaryotic elongation factor 2 kinase (EF2K) is an enzyme which is overexpressed in cancer cells and plays a key role in cancer cell survival under stress conditions. There is no study that have shown the relationship between EF2K and TME. Thus, we investigated that the effects of EF2K expression on PaCa cell line (PANC1) and the TME.
