Islet amyloid polypeptide staining levels and the fraction of positive beta cells trended lower (p = 0.1699) in insulinoma tissue compared to matched control islets.
Immunohistochemical evaluation of pancreatic surgical specimens examined six insulinoma cases and six body mass index-matched controls using double staining methods.
Highlights that altered islet amyloid polypeptide expression may represent a distinct cellular response to persistent hyperinsulinemia and continuous hypoglycemia.

Implication

Comparative analysis observes reduced islet amyloid polypeptide staining in insulinoma patients, suggesting altered hormone secretion during chronic hyperinsulinemia.
