Introduction: The role of Angiopoietin (Ang)/Tie2 kinase pathway in neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) has recently received increasing attention, but its clinical role remains unclear. Tie2-receptor inactivation favours chronic inflammation. The balance between its agonist and antagonist regulates its signalling. Aim of this study was to measure serum soluble Tie2 (sTie2) and Ang-2 in patients followed at the NETTARE Unit (NeuroEndocrine TAsk foRcE of ‘Sapienza’ Univer...
