Using in situ hybridization techniques with selective oligoprobes, the gene expression of sst 1 , sst 2 , sst 3 and sst 5 was studied in a series of 32 human pituitary adenomas, 28 breast tumors and 21 endocrine gastroentero-pancreatic tumors, shown to express somatostatin receptors to variable exte

Background. The immunoreactivity for progesterone receptors (PR) of the majority of endocrine cells of the human pancreas has prompted the authors to investigate if PR expression is maintained in pancreatic endocrine tumors and is correlated with the main clinicopathologic features of these neoplasm
