#4654 Usefulness of soluble tumour necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) and its receptors R2 and R3 in progression assessment of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms – A preliminary study

Introduction: TRAIL is a member of TNF family and appears in membrane and soluble (s) forms. It acts either triggering (R1 and R2) or blocking (R3 and R4) apoptosis. TRAIL targeted therapy is widely studied and known as potentially effective in number of neoplasms.

#4651 Neuroendocrine hyperplasia of infancy (NEHI) vs. diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia (DIPNECH): What is the difference?

Introduction: Neuroendocrine Hyperplasia of Infancy (NEHI) is a rare disease that belongs to the group of interstitial lung disease in children; characterised by hypoxemia, tachypnoea, and respiratory distress, often misdiagnosed as reactive airway disease or bronchiolitis. The diagnosis relies on histologic evaluation. We describe the clinical presentation and paraclinical characteristics of paediatric patients with NEHI.

#4647 Crosstalk between cancer-associated fibroblasts and small intestinal neuroendocrine tumour cells in a 3D spheroid model

Introduction: At diagnosis, over 50% of small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours (SI-NETs) have metastasised to the mesentery where they often induce extensive fibrosis. Recent studies highlight the crucial interaction between SI-NET cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in the pathogenesis of mesenteric fibrosis (MF).

#4646 Dysregulated miRNA in patients with GEP-NEN and potential role as circulating biomarker

Introduction: Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are a class of rare and molecularly extremely heterogeneous tumours. NENs arise predominantly in the gastrointestinal (GEP) and pulmonary tracts but can also involve thyroid and breast. NENs often present with non-specific symptoms and lack early specific biomarkers, leading to frequent metastatic diagnoses and primary site challenges.

#4638 Prognostic role of the kynurenine/tryptophan pathway and inflammatory cytokines in neuroendocrine tumour progression: A cross-sectional analysis

Introduction: Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) converts L-tryptophan (T) to L-kynurenine (K) resulting in an immunosuppressive microenvironment.
