#4301 Case report on the effectiveness of combination therapy in highly aggressive resistant prolactinoma

Introduction: Prolactinomas represent 50% of pituitary neuroendocrine tumours (PitNET), aggressive prolactinomas represent 15% of them.

Keywords: prolactinoma, IHC, Pit Net, chemotherapy,

#3505 DRD2 agonist cabergoline abolished the escape mechanism induced by mTOR inhibitor everolimus in pituitary neuroendocrine tumoral cells

Introduction: The mTOR inhibitor everolimus displays antimitotic effects on diverse neoplasms, including pituitary neuroendocrine ones (PitNETs); however, its effect is reduced by an escape mechanism that increases AKT phosphorylation (p-AKT) leading to survival pathway activation. Dopamine receptor type 2 (DRD2) reduces p-AKT in some non-functioning PitNETs (NF-PitNETs) and in lactotrophs MMQ cells, through a β-arrestin2-dependent mechanism.

#2271 Effects of Multi-Receptor Targeting Drugs in Neuroendocrine Tumors Using 3D Cell Culture

Introduction: Symptom control in functioning neuroendocrine tumors(NETs) may be difficult in some cases, thus, new therapeutic options, including multi-receptor targeting drugs are required.

Conference: 15th Annual ENETSConcerence (2018)

Authors: Herrera-Martínez A, Van Dungen R, Van Koetsveld P, Dogan-Oruc F, Culler M,

Keywords: NETs, somatostatin receptors, dopamine receptors, multi-receptor targeting drugs, hormone secretion,

#919 Effect of Combined Treatment with mTOR Inhibitors (mTORi) and Dopamine Agonists on Cell Proliferation in a Human Typical Lung Carcinoid Cell Line

Introduction: The mTOR pathway and dopamine receptors are potential targets for treatment of neuroendocrine tumors (NET).

Conference: 11th Annual ENETSConcerence (2014)

Keywords: mTOR, dopamine,

#532 Effect of the Combined Administration of mTOR Inhibitor and Dopamine or Somatostatin Analogues in a Human Bronchial Neuroendocrine Cell Line

Introduction: The mTOR inhibitor rapamycin (RAP) has been considered an anticancer agent. The role of dopamine and somatostatin in controlling cell secretion and proliferation in neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) is still unclear.
