Spatially Resolved Proteomic Cartography Illuminates the Earliest Molecular Programs in Pancreatic Cancer Evolution.

Min, Schweizer, and colleagues use artificial intelligence-powered deep visual proteomics to generate a spatial proteomic atlas of pancreatic cancer precursor evolution, revealing that major metabolic and inflammatory reprogramming occurs long before overt histologic transformation. More broadly, the study highlights the emerging potential of spatial proteomics and multiomics to bridge histopathology with molecular pathology and precision oncology.
