Acinar cell carcinoma (ACC) and islet cell tumor (ICT), both rare pancreatic neoplasms, can be diagnosed accurately and rapidly with the use of imaging-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsies. The specific cytologic features of these tumors are described in a series of 17 patients, and histologic and
Islet cell lines were produced by retroviral transduction of SV-40 T antigen to monolayer cultures of neonatal rat islets. One line, RN0-11, showed evolution of phenotypes in vitro. It evolved from a non-hormone secreting cell line to an insulin secreting line. It further developed glucagon producin
