Treatment options for PNET liver metastases. a systematic review [PDF]
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) are rare pancreatic neoplasms. About 40-80% of patients with PNET are metastatic at presentation, usually involving the liver (40-93%). Liver metastasis represents the most significant prognostic factor.

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs) are a heterogeneous group of tumors including well differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) and neuroendocrine carcinomas (pNECs). The incidence of pNENs has increased over the past few decades.

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

Tumor markers used in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with neuroendocrine tumors are in most instances not specific for a given tumor and circulate under normal conditions in the serum, making their use as an early diagnostic tool difficult (low sensitivity).

MEN1 promotes ferroptosis by inhibiting mTOR-SCD1 axis in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET) is the second most common malignant tumors of the pancreas. Multiple endocrine neoplasia 1 ( MEN1) is the most frequently mutated gene in pNETs and MEN1-encoded protein, menin, is a scaffold ...

Clinical study of robot and laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery for well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors [PDF]
Background and purpose: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET) is a rare tumor. At present, there is still a lack of large-scale clinical research data to summarize the clinical effect of minimally invasive technology in the treatment of pNET. This study
