CXCR2 and SSTR2 Expression in Pancreatic and Small Intestinal Neuroendocrine Tumors: A Cross-Sectional Study
By Xiangshan Fan, Kristen Logan, Huihua Li and 4 others.
Abstract
CXC chemokine receptor 2 (CXCR2) expression has been observed in normal neuroendocrine cells, but its role in neuroendocrine neoplasms is less well established. We aimed to evaluate CXCR2 expression with somatostatin receptor type 2 (SSTR2) expression in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs) and small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs).
