#807 MicroRNA Expression in Serum of Small Intestine Neuroendocrine Tumor Patients and miR-196a Biological Function in Neuroendocrine Tumor Cells

Introduction: We have previously identified five upregulated and four downregulated miRNAs in small intestinal neuroendocrine tumor (SI-NET) tissue. We extended our analysis to serum samples of SI-NET patients to depict miRNAs functions.

#585 Global microRNA profiling of small intestine neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) and establishment of a method to study serum microRNA expression from the same tumors

Introduction: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important post-transcriptional regulatorsin biological processes and function either as tumor suppressors or oncogenes.

#200 Genome-Wide MicroRNA Expression in Small Intestine Neuroendocrine Tumors (“Midgut carcinoids”): Upregulation of miRNA-182, miRNA-183 and Downregulation of miRNA-215

Introduction: MicroRNAs (miRs) may regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and function as tumor suppressors or oncogenes. MiR expression is not characterized in neuroendocrine midgut carcinoids.
