mRNA vaccines continue to show major promise.

In a small Phase 1 trial led by Dr. Balachandran, some patients with pancreatic cancer (one of the deadliest cancers) reached 6-year survival.

This is why sustained investment in science & research matters.

Paltusotine versus octreotide: different effects on radioligand uptake in neuroendocrine tumours in Endocrine Oncology Authors: Katharina Wang et al. Open Access. Figure 1. (A) 18F-SiTATE uptake assay using BON-1 SSTR2 cells after treatment with either paltusotine or octreotide. Cellular uptake was measured after (B) 30 min, (C) 120 min and (D) 240 min. DOTATATE acetate was used as the blocked control. The data are depicted as mean ± SD of four duplicate experiments. Molar concentrations: 100× (7.3–25.4 nM), 1,000× (73–254 nM), 2,000× (146–508 nM). Significantly lower radioligand uptake compared to the unblocked control *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001. Endocrine Oncology 5, 1; 10.1530/EO-25-0041 Published by Bioscientifica. Society of Endocrinology.

New research by K Wang et al. suggest that paltusotine, a novel somatostatin analogue, could be continued during peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) in patients with metastatic gastro-enteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEP-NETs).

Transcriptome-wide outlier approach identifies individuals with minor spliceopathies RNA-sequencing has improved the diagnostic yield of individuals with rare diseases. Current analyses predominantly focus on identifying outliers in single genes that can be attributed to cis-acting va...

What if one variant can cause splicing outliers transcriptome-wide? In our preprint, we show how examining transcriptome-wide patterns of splicing outliers can both diagnose individuals with rare spliceopathies and uncover novel disease-gene relationships! (www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...)

Ignacio Ruz-Caracuel et al. summarise current knowledge of cancer stem cells (CSCs) in #neuroendocrine #neoplasms and highlight the importance of understanding the role of CSCs in the biology of these rare tumors. Read it here 👉 https://buff.ly/40k6Tle
