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

Non functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
Nonfunctioning Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasia (NF-PanNEN) are a wide group of heterogeneous tumors, increasingly diagnosed in recent years. NF-PanNEN are classified in different categories based on Ki67 proliferation index and their morphology (well

Characterization of the neuroendocrine pancreatic tumors nature by MDCT enhancement pattern: a radio-pathological correlation [PDF]
Introduction Pre-operative suspicion of neuroendocrine pancreatic lesions nature arises both from clinical (presence and the type of secreted hormone) and imaging findings.

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 ...

Everolimus for Advanced Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors [PDF]
Everolimus, an oral inhibitor of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), has shown antitumor activity in patients with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, in two phase 2 studies. We evaluated the agent in a prospective, randomized, phase 3 study.We randomly assigned 410 patients who had advanced, low-grade or intermediate-grade pancreatic ...

When pancreas solid mass meets liver cystic lesion: A case report
. Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are in low incidence compared with other pancreatic tumors, and they present as various pathological forms, including solid, cystic and solid-cystic lesions. Herein, we report a rare case that presents cystic lesions in

Prognosis after surgery for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1-related pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors: Functionality matters [PDF]
Background: Metastasized pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are the leading cause of death in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1. Aside from tumor size, prognostic factors of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are largely unknown.
