Endocrine and Neuroendocrine Cancers [PDF]
Endocrine and neuroendocrine tumors originate from endocrine cells but are heterogeneous in terms of clinical presentation, disease outcome, and treatments available.

Neuroendocrine tumors comprise a broad family of tumors, the most common of which are carcinoid and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. The NCCN Neuroendocrine Tumors Guidelines discuss the diagnosis and management of both sporadic and hereditary neuroendocrine tumors. Most of the recommendations pertain to well-differentiated, low- to intermediate-grade

Expression of a neuroendocrine gene signature in gastric tumor cells from CEA 424-SV40 large T antigen-transgenic mice depends on SV40 large T antigen. [PDF]
A large fraction of murine tumors induced by transgenic expression of SV40 large T antigen (SV40 TAg) exhibits a neuroendocrine phenotype. It is unclear whether SV40 TAg induces the neuroendocrine phenotype by preferential transformation of progenitor ...

Challenges in High-grade Neuroendocrine Neoplasms and Mixed Neuroendocrine/Non-neuroendocrine Neoplasms [PDF]
AbstractThe growth in knowledge of the pathogenesis, molecular background, and immunohistochemical profile of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) has led not only to an increased awareness of these diseases but also to several changes of the nomenclature.

Abstract. Ageing is followed by an involution of neuroendocrine functions, resulting in a decreased secretion of sex steroids and growth hormone. In addition, Cortisol secretion may be inadequately elevated upon stress challenges, due to deficient braking functions by central glucocorticoid receptors. In combination, these endocrine perturbations will

High Histone Deacetylase 2/3 Expression in Non-Functioning Pituitary Tumors
Epigenetic modification of chromatin is involved in non-malignant pituitary neoplasia by causing abnormal expression of tumor suppressors and oncogenes.

The novel mTOR inhibitor RAD001 (Everolimus) induces antiproliferative effects in human pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor cells [PDF]
Background/Aim: Tumors exhibiting constitutively activated PI(3) K/Akt/mTOR signaling are hypersensitive to mTOR inhibitors such as RAD001 (everolimus) which is presently being investigated in clinical phase II trials in various tumor entities, including

Neural processing of visual food stimuli is perturbated at extremes of weight. Human fMRI studies investigating diet effects on neural processing of food cues could aid in understanding altered brain activation in conditions of under‐ and overnutrition ...

Acromegaly and thyroid cancer: analysis of evolution in a series of patients
Background Acromegaly is associated with higher morbidity and mortality mainly due to cardiovascular disease. Data on the incidence and evolution of thyroid cancer in acromegaly are controversial.
