Methadone blocks dopamine-mediated release of gonadotropins in rat hypothalamus.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are rare and characterized by a heterogeneous clinical course and an unmet need for better prognostic markers. Plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has prognostic value in other malignancies but is not previously investigated in NETs. We studied cfDNA levels in patients with mainly low g...
