Fibrosis Activation — Reversal Not Achieved
The p=5 p-adic factor. Pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) are the architects of fibrosis. In chronic pancreatitis and PDAC, PSCs activate and secrete collagen I, fibronectin, and laminin — creating the physical stroma barrier. ζ_5(s) = (1 - 5^(-s))^(-1) represents the fibrosis gate. In healthy state: PSC is quiescent (gate closed). In PDAC: gate locked open.
SORRY × 2: (1) Fibrosis reversal has not been clinically achieved in PDAC stroma. (2) MRTX1133 (KRAS G12D inhibitor) may indirectly unlock PSC quiescence by reducing tumor-secreted TGF-β — but this is a Phase 1 hypothesis, not demonstrated mechanism. The p=5 factor has no convergence proof in the PDAC state.
