High TLR7 expression in SB-NET lymph node metastases was associated with worse prognosis. The current research has future perspective, as it can help create base for clinical drug trials to target specific TLRs with agonists or antagonists to treat neuroendocrine tumors.

TLR7 may have opposing functions in tumor versus stroma cells. Further work is required to more precisely dissect the roles of TLR7 and its ligands in different populations of epithelial and stromal cells and to understand their relative contributions to tumor progression.
