Abstract

DNA mutational profiling showed that atypical carcinoids (ACs) share alterations with large-cell neuroendocrine carcinomas (LCNECs). Transcriptomic studies suggested that LCNEC are composed of two subtypes, one of which shares molecular anomalies with small-cell lung cancer. The missing piece of information is the transcriptomic relationship between AC and LCNEC, as a direct comparison is lacking in literature.
