The Novel Somatostatin Receptor 2/Dopamine Type 2 Receptor Chimeric Compound BIM-23A758 Decreases the Viability of Human GOT1 Midgut

to BIM-23A758, the SSTR2/D2R chimeric compound BIM-23A760 as well as the individual SSTR2 and D2R agonistic compounds BIM-23023 and BIM-53097 induced no or only minor antitumor responses in the examined NET cell lines. Taken together, our findings suggest that the novel SSTR2/ D2R chimeric compound BIM-23A758 might be a promising substance for the treatment of NETs highly expressing SSTR2 and D2R. In particular, a sufficient expression of the short transcript variant of DR2 might play a pivotal role for effec-tive treatment. © 2013 S. Karger AG, Base
