#2902 DNA Methylation Analysis of the PDX1 Gene Can Be Used for PNET Subtyping and Has a Possible Prognostic Value

Introduction: Estimating prognosis of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (PNET) patients remains challenging. Mutation status of DAXX/ATRX/MEN1, histone modification patterns and immunohistochemistry for relevant transcription factors, including PDX1, were recently used to perform subtyping and distinguished two main types, A and B. These subtypes are linked to cell-of-origin and associated with clinical outcome.

#2283 Ultra-Deep Targeted Resequencing Reveals Recurrent DAXX and CYFIP2 Mutations and Implicates Novel Pathways in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

Introduction: Recent studies in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors have identified mutations in DAXX/ATRX, MEN1, and genes involved in the phosphoinositide-3-kinase/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K-Akt-mTOR) pathway. However, these studies focused on abundant mutations.

#2139 Genome-Wide DNA Methylation Profiling of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

Introduction: Frequent inactivation of epigenetic regulators ATRX and DAXX in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) suggests an important role for epigenetic alterations in tumorigenesis. Few studies have been published regarding differential methylation patterns in PNETs and a thorough analysis of these alterations is currently lacking.
