#4622 Elucidating the role of high mobility group box 3 (Hmgb3) during progression and response to radiation therapy in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours

Introduction: We have recently demonstrated that HMGB3 is upregulated during the pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (PanNETs) transition via dedifferentiation from a relatively benign molecular subtype to an aggressive and highly metastatic molecular subtype. HMGB3 expression has recently been linked to resistance to therapy, metastasis, and poor prognosis in patients with various solid cancers.

#4592 Uncovering cell-state heterogeneity in large-cell panNEC indicates potentially targetable aberrant brain type neuronal de-differentiation

Introduction: Classification and treatment of high-grade pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinoma (panNEC), particularly those with large-cell morphology, present significant clinical challenges due to considerable inter- and intra-patient tumour heterogeneity.

#4573 Digestive neuroendocrine tumours: Patterns, pathways, and progress in personalised management

Introduction: Digestive neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), though rare, are increasingly diagnosed with their incidence rising. Histopathological examination is crucial for diagnosis and grading, based on cell differentiation and proliferation index. Often diagnosed late due to non-specific symptoms, these tumours may present with hormone hypersecretion. Updated classifications now allow better risk stratification and tailored treatments. Advances in imaging, particularly PETscans with somatostatin analogues have improved NET diagnosis and monitoring.

#4568 Investigating the dual role of SNW1 in splicing and transcription to understand pancreatic neuroendocrine tumour progression

Introduction: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (PanNETs) are classified into grades (G1-G3) based on mitotic rate, with higher grades exhibiting increased dedifferentiation and invasiveness. Despite the clinical significance of PanNETs progression, the underlying mechanisms remain largely unexplored. We have previously reported that altered alternative splicing plays an essential role in PanNETs progression, where SNW1, a key regulator of splicing and transcription, was found to be overexpressed in tumour tissue, correlating with higher grade and recurrence risk.
