#2284 The Association between Gastrin and Glucose Serum Concentration in Hypergastrinemic Patients with Gastric Neuroendocrine Tumors Type 1 and ECL-Cells Hyperplasia

Introduction: There is previous data demonstrating that elevated gastrin levels could exert some effect potentiating the glucose-induced insulin secretion.

#1880 Dedifferentiation of Metastatic Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms

Introduction: Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) exhibit significant differences in growth behavior. Their metastatic disease may dedifferentiate presenting a more aggressive biological behavior

#1572 Study of the Biological Significance of the IGF-IEc (MGF) in Well and Poorly Differentiated Neuroendocrine Neoplasms

Introduction: Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) has a key role in cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, and survival. Different IGF-I mRNA transcripts, such as IGF-IEc (mechano growth factor, MGF), are produced by alternative splicing. MGF has been implicated in muscle regeneration process as well as in the pathophysiology of various types of cancer.

#1145 The Association Between Gastrin and Glucose Serum Concentration

Introduction: Gastrin is an early incretin candidate, since it is released by oral glucose and potentiates the glucose- induced insulin secretion. It has been shown that only in hypoglycemic or hyperglycemic conditions gastrin release is influenced by changes in blood glucose and insulin concentrations.
