BACKGROUND & AIMS: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma can develop from precursor lesions, including pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN). Previous studies indicated that loss of Acvr1b accelerates the Kras-mediated development of papillary IPMN in the mouse pancreas; however, the cell type predominantly affected by these genetic changes remains unclear.
METHODS: We investigated the contribution of cellular origin by inducing IPMN associated mutations (KRASG12D expression and Acvr1b loss) specifically in acinar (Ptf1aCreER;KrasLSL-G12D;Acvr1bfl/fl mice) or ductal (Sox9CreER;KrasLSL-G12D;Acvr1bfl/fl mice) cells in mice. We then performed magnetic resonance imaging and a thorough histopathologic analysis of their pancreatic tissues.
RESULTS: The loss of Acvr1b increased the development of pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia and IPMN-like lesions when either acinar or ductal cells expressed a Kras mutation. Magnetic resonance imaging, immunohistochemistry, and histology revealed large IPMN-like lesions in these mice that exhibited features of flat, gastric epithelium. In addition, cyst formation in both mouse models was accompanied by chronic pancreatitis. Experimental acute pancreatitis accelerated the development of large mucinous cysts and pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia when acinar, but not ductal, cells expressed mutant Kras and lost Acvr1b.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings indicate that loss of Acvr1b in the presence of the Kras oncogene promotes the development of large and small precancerous lesions from both ductal and acinar cells. However, the IPMN-like phenotype was not equivalent to that observed when these mutations were made in all pancreatic cells during development. Our study underscores the significance of the cellular context in the initiation and progression of precursor lesions from exocrine cells.
