In this week's glossary carousel we explain: • Dysplasia • Lesion • Pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) Understanding these early biological changes helps researchers identify opportunities for earlier detection and prevention. #PancreaticCancer #CancerResearch #EarlyDetection

🚨 500,000 #pancreaticcancer deaths in 2020. The biggest challenge: We can’t diagnose it in time. #WorldCancerDay reminds us that every diagnosis remains a race against time And we’re committed to develop a biomarker panel that can reliably detect PDAC at its earliest stages #UnitedByUnique #WCD2026

Excited that Prof. Klaus Pantel was speaker at the Inaugural EUnetCCC Educational Seminar in Barcelona yesterday, contributing "Liquid Biopsy: From Discovery to Clinical Implementation" #EUnetCCC #LiquidBiopsy #pancreaticcancer #precisiononcology #EUfunded

Today is #WorldPancreaticCancerDay 💜 #Pancreaticcancer is projected to become the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Western societies by 2030. A stark reminder of why our work matters. Today, our thoughts are with all patients and families affected by this devastating disease. 💜 #WPCD

Characterizing the Sulfated and Glucuronidated (Poly)phenol Metabolome for Dietary Biomarker Discovery #JAFC #MassSpec pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Characterizing the Sulfated and Glucuronidated (Poly)phenol Metabolome for Dietary Biomarker Discovery

(Poly)phenols, bioactive compounds abundant in plant-based diets, have attracted interest for their potential role in preventing chronic diseases including cardiometabolic and neurodegenerative diseases. This study investigates the global sulfatome and glucuronidated metabolome in urine samples from 100 healthy adults collected pre- and postintervention following a 3-day (poly)phenol-rich intervention consisting of flaxseeds, raspberry powder, and soy milk. Using untargeted mass spectrometric metabolomics combined with selective phase II enzymatic treatment, we detected 156 sulfated and 143 glucuronidated metabolites in urine samples. Significant changes postintervention were observed for 91 sulfates and 94 glucuronides. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis identified a combination of six polyphenol-derived key metabolites: glucuronidated daidzein and the sulfated compounds of pyrogallol, ferulic acid, 4-methoxyphenol, enterolactone, and resorcinol, which resulted in the best combination with the highest predictive AUC of 0.97. These findings underscore the utility of these metabolites as sensitive and selective biomarkers of (poly)phenol dietary intake.
