Objective The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical significance of S100A4 mRNA expression in pancreatic cancer.Materials and Methods We obtained invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) cells from ten lesions, intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) cells from 20 lesions, and normal ductal cells from 20 normal pancreatic tissues by laser microdissection of frozen tissues. S100A4 expression was examined in the microdissected cells and in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples of 87 pancreatic cancers by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.Results IDC cells expressed higher levels of S100A4 than IPMN cells (P=0.002) and normal ductal cells (P
