#1772 Expression of Truncated Functional Subtype 5 Somatostatin Receptor Variant (sst5TMD4) in GEP-NETs and Association with Relevant Pathways Involved in NET Tumorigenesis

Introduction: Sst5TMD4, which is derived from a non-canonical splicing process of sst5 receptor, is overexpressed in several endocrine tumors and associated with a worse prognosis.

#205 Integrated Genome-Wide DNA Methylation and mRNA Expression Analysis of Pancreatic NETs Identifies Differential Activation of the Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF) Pathway Between Low and Intermediate Grade Tumors

Introduction: This is the first study to integrate DNA methylation and mRNA expression analysis in NETs. It is a powerful approach with which to identify disrupted biological pathways in NET pathogenesis.

#99 Gene mutations and Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF-1) expression as prognostic-predictive factors in pheochromocytomas/paragangliomas (P/P)

Introduction: P/P are rare tumors sporadically associated with familial disorders. In advanced/unresectable disease, no standard treatment has so far been well established. Recently a mutation of some genes (SDHB, SDHC, SDHD) involved in the pathogenesis of familial P/P was discovered. These mutations are often associated with an over-expression of HIF-1, which plays a central role in angiogenesis and cell proliferation. This pathway is known to be inhibited by some targeted therapies, such as sunitinib or sorafenib.
