Growth hormone and somatostatin gene expression in adult and aging rats as measured by quantitative in situ hybridization.

abstract：BACKGROUND/AIM:The neuroendocrine tumor (NET) proliferation-based grading system (ENETS/WHO) for gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) tumors has proved reliable for prognostic stratification. To date, concerns exist regarding Ki-67 heterogeneity within the tumor and little is known on whether grade varies between primary and s...
