Anti-tumor effects of peptide analogs targeting neuropeptide hormone receptors on mouse pheochromocytoma cells

► We found overexpressed peptide receptors on pheochromocytoma cells. ► We studied novel tumor therapy based on peptide analogs targeting these receptors. ► We tested two neuroendocrine tumors relevant mouse pheochromocytoma cell lines. ► The cell lines are the basis for mouse models of pheochromocytoma which we set up.
