   Cancer Name pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor
   ICD-0-3 C25  M8246/3
   Methods microarray, qPCR, Luciferase reporter assay etc.
   Sample pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors tissues, cell lines (MIN6 and MIN6-4N)
   Expression Pattern down-regulated
   Function Description

We found that Meg3 has tumor-suppressor activity in PNET cells because the overexpression of Meg3 in MIN6 cells (insulin-secreting mouse PNET cell line) blocked cell proliferation and delayed cell cycle progression. Gene expression microarray analysis showed that Meg3 overexpression in MIN6 mouse insulinoma cells down-regulated the expression of the protooncogene c-Met (hepatocyte growth factor receptor), and these cells showed significantly reduced cell migration/invasion. Compared with normal islets, mouse or human MEN1-associated PNETs expressed less MEG3 and more c-MET
