Angiogenic gene signature in human pancreatic cancer correlates with TGF-beta and inflammatory transcriptomes [PDF]
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs) are hypovascular, but overexpress pro-angiogenic factors and exhibit regions of microvasculature. Using RNA-seq data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), we previously reported that ~12% of PDACs have an ...

Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor Leading to a Diagnosis of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1
ABSTRACT Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms are rare but occasionally encountered. They are generally highly vascularized solid tumors, often round in shape with clear boundaries, defined contours, and a homogeneous internal structure. However, they can also present with atypical features, such as cystic degeneration, hemorrhage, calcification, and ...

ABSTRACT Barrett's esophageal adenocarcinoma (BEA) with neuroendocrine cell carcinoma (NEC) is a rare disease with a poor prognosis. We report a case of BEA with NEC treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) with en bloc resection and long‐term survival was achieved without additional treatment.

Amylase release from streptolysin O-permeabilized pancreatic acinar cells. Effects of Ca2+, guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate, cyclic AMP, tetanus toxin and botulinum A toxin [PDF]
The molecular requirements for amylase release and the intracellular effects of botulinum A toxin and tetanus toxin on amylase release were investigated using rat pancreatic acinar cells permeabilized with streptolysin O.

ABSTRACT We present a rare and diagnostically challenging case of a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET) with intraductal growth into the main pancreatic duct (MPD), complicated by severe thrombocytopenia due to myelodysplastic syndrome. A 37‐year‐old male presented with thrombocytopenia.

ABSTRACT Metastasis of lung cancer to the small intestine is rare and often diagnosed only after life‐threatening complications such as perforation or obstruction. We report a case of small intestinal metastasis from pulmonary large cell carcinoma, diagnosed using balloon‐assisted endoscopy (BAE) performed for obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB ...

ABSTRACT Subepithelial lesions (SELs) of the head and neck have a low diagnostic yield with mucosal biopsy and carry a bleeding risk. Among endoscopic ultrasound–tissue acquisition (EUS‐TA) techniques, fine‐needle biopsy (FNB) provides higher specimen adequacy and diagnostic accuracy than fine‐needle aspiration (FNA).

Immunoglobulin G4‐Related Disease‐Like Gastric Lesion Presenting as Submucosal Tumor‐Like Lesions
ABSTRACT Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)‐related disease (RD) is a systemic fibroinflammatory condition characterized by infiltration of IgG4‐positive plasma cells (PCs). Gastrointestinal involvement may present as submucosal tumor–like lesions and poses diagnostic challenges.

Glucagon Secreting Tumors and Glucagonoma Syndrome [PDF]
Glucagonomas are the functioning neuroendocrine tumors. These arise from pancreatic islet α-cells. These tumors are extremely rare and have an annual incidence of 1 per 20-40 million population 80% of glucagon-expressing tumors are sporadic, and 20% are ...

ABSTRACT We report the case of a 52‐year old man who was referred to our institution after a routine health check identified an asymptomatic gastric polyp. The medical history of the patient included reflux esophagitis, for which he had been treated with vonoprazan 10 mg daily for 6 years after initially receiving proton pump inhibitors.
