## Abstract Little is known about the molecular pathogenesis of neuroendocrine tumors (NET) of the gastroโenteroโpancreatic (GEP) system. We analyzed genetic and epigenetic alterations as well as the CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP). The study comprised 118 wellโdifferentiated foreโ and midโg
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
## Background: Recent classifications identify four categories of neuroendocrine (ne) tumors of the lung: low grade typical carcinoid (tc), intermediate grade atypical carcinoid (ac), and high grade large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (lc-nec) and small cell lung carcinoma (sclc). ## Methods: The
## Abstract To better understand the molecular pathogenesis of neuroendocrine tumors (NET), we investigated the molecular and clinical characteristics of malignant poorly differentiated colorectal NET and compared these findings with sporadic CRC and wellโdifferentiated benign and malignant foreโ/m
