Abstract
Aim/Introduction: Our aim is to increase the expression of somatostatin type-2 receptors (SST2) on the pulmonary neuroendocrine tumor (NET) cell line NCI-H727 by using epigenetic drugs. We tested the effect of six histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis), aiming to promote the euchromatin state supporting SST2 gene transcription. This approach may possibly open up opportunities for NET patients with insufficient tumoral SST2, thereby increasing the number of patients eligible for SST2-targeted therapies such as peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT). We also compared our results with similar studies performed in the pancreatic NET cell line BON-1.
