Epigenetic landscape of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours reveals distinct cells of origin and means of tumour progression
7 Dec 2020
Abstract excerpt
Recent data suggest that Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours (PanNETs) originate from α- or β-cells of the islets of Langerhans. The majority of PanNETs are non-functional and do not express cell-type specific hormones. In the current study we examine whether tumour DNA methylation (DNAme) profiling combined with genomic data is able to identify cell of origin and to reveal pathways involved in PanNET progression....
