Description

Shota Amano and eleven colleagues published a 2023 study on tumors of the pancreas called pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. These tumors grow from hormone-making cells. When they cannot be cut out, drug therapy is the main path, but picking the best drug is unsettled.

The team reviewed 47 patients who had surgery for these tumors. They stained tumor samples for a set of markers tied to cell death, called apoptosis. One marker, GLUT1, tracks sugar uptake, while others mark drug targets on the cell surface. They asked which markers track how the tumor advances. Clear markers could help doctors match each patient to the drug most likely to help.
