Transcriptomic analysis by RNA sequencing characterises malignant progression of canine insulinoma from normal tissue to metastatic disease

Abstract excerpt

Insulinomas (INS) are the most common human and canine functioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours. The long-term prognosis for malignant INS is poor, because micrometastases are frequently missed during surgery. As human and canine malignant INS share clinical and histopathological features, dogs have been proposed as models for INS research. Using RNA-sequencing, we conducted a pilot study to better...
