Disheveled-axin (DIX) domain containing 1 (DIXDC1), a protein containing a coiled-coil domain and a DIX domain, is involved in the progression of multiple cancers. However, the role of DIXDC1 in human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the role and prognostic value of DIXDC1 in the development of human PDAC. Western blot analysis revealed that DIXDC1 was highly expressed in PDAC tissues and cell lines. Immunohistochemistry on 165 paraffin-embedded sections showed that high expression of DIXDC1 was significantly correlated with tumor size (P =.002), histological differentiation (P =.001), tumor node metastasis (TNM) stage (P =.001), and the proliferation marker Ki-67 (P =.000). Importantly, Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that high expression of DIXDC1 was obviously correlated with worsened overall survival (P
