Regarding the PVT1rs1561927 polymorphism the G allele was significantly overrepresented in both PDAC and PNET patients compared to the controls, while the presence of the HOTAIR rs4759314 G allele was found to be overrepresented in the PNET patients only compared to the controls.
ZBTB16 effectively differentiates PNETs from other small round blue cell tumor mimics, including the two most common germ cell tumor-derived somatic malignancies - rhabdomyosarcoma and nephroblastoma.
In conclusion, UCHL1 loss correlates with metastatic potential in PNETs and its re-expression induces a less aggressive phenotype in vitro, in part by inducing cell-cycle arrest through post-translational regulation of phosphorylated CHK2.

In our study pNETs in MEN1+ and pNETs in MEN1- don't significantly differ for prognosis but only for clinical features. p-NET stage disease and prognosis can be positively influenced by early diagnosis and screening in index patients' first-degree relatives.
Glucagon receptor (GCGR) defect (Mahvash disease) is an autosomal recessive hereditary pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (PNET) syndrome that has only been reported in adults with pancreatic α cell hyperplasia and PNETs.
In our study pNETs in MEN1+ and pNETs in MEN1- don't significantly differ for prognosis but only for clinical features. p-NET stage disease and prognosis can be positively influenced by early diagnosis and screening in index patients' first-degree relatives.

A DCLK1-overexpressing PNET cell line (QGP1-DCLK1) exhibited epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related gene signatures, and robust upregulation of Slug (SNAI2), N-Cadherin (CDH2), and Vimentin (VIM) was validated by real-time PCR and immunoblotting.
Histologically, the PNET-like component showed morphological features akin to anaplastic medulloblastoma highlighted by widespread immunoreactivity for βIII-tubulin (TUBB3) and nonphosphorylated neurofilament protein, and to a lesser degree, Neu-N, synaptophysin, and CD99, whereas the gliomatous component was demarcated by glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) labeling.

Adrenocorticotropic hormone production by pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (PNET) is rare and results in hyperstimulation of the adrenal gland to produce ectopic Cushing syndrome.
