Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is a severe-invasive, early-metastasis and malignant neoplasm with latent pathogenesis, while its biological behaviors are the highlight of current tumor study.In present study,through reviewing the studies related to expression profile of pancreatic cancer up to now.This artical summarized the achievement, challenge and trend of development of expression profile in pancreatic cancer.In conclusion, exploring the mechanism of carcinogenesis and development of pancreatic cancer based on the breakthrough of expression-profiling studies and establishing ideal models of pancreatic cancer, will promote systemic diagnosis and treatments of pancreatic cancer and do favor to the prognosis of the patients.
