Aberrant NT signaling has been shown to activate uncontrolled proliferation and dissemination in several gastrointestinal cancer types. Neurotransmitters have been shown to affect endothelial cells and immune cells in the tumor microenvironment to promote tumor progression. We previously showed that single nucleotide polymorphisms in the dopamine and GABA pathways are associated with outcome in patients with metastatic CRC receiving first-line treatment. Here we further evaluated the distribution and molecular context of NT pathway alterations in CRC.
