Elevated miR-16-5p induces somatostatin receptor 2 expression in neuroendocrine tumor cells.
Somatostatin analogs, which are used to treat neuroendocrine tumors, inhibit hormone secretion or promote tumor shrinkage; however, their efficacy varies between patients, possibly because of differential expression of somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) in ...

Early Experience With Evoque Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement in Carcinoid Heart Disease
ABSTRACT Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is nearly universal in carcinoid heart disease (CHD), but surgical replacement carries significant risk, and CHD was excluded from the landmark TRISCEND II trial. We present seven patients with CHD undergoing Evoque transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) at two tertiary centers.
