Aberrant brain-type neuronal programs in large-cell pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinoma

Listed in NCBI GEO

High-grade pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinoma (panNEC) is a rare, aggressive cancer with limited tissue availability.

Description

Single-nucleus transcriptomics of five large-cell panNECs revealed two interesting neuroendocrine cell states: one highly proliferative with an aberrant brain-specific neuronal differentiation program and another stress-responsive state enriched for heat stress, hypoxia, and glycolysis. Our findings suggest potential therapeutic vulnerabilities, highlighting the need to evaluate the efficacy of combination therapies.
