Core Tip	Neuroendocrine differentiation in sporadic colorectal cancer has been recognized since deca?des. In contrast to the clinico-pathologically well-defined pure neuroendocrine tumors and mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinomas of the colon and rectum, the clinical impact of focal neuroendocrine differentiation in colorectal carcinomas is still con?troversially discussed. Further insights into the regulation of neuroendocrine differentiation by mTOR pathway components and recent knowledge about a link of enteroendocrine cells to the intestinal stem cell compartment hint at a role of neuroendocrine cells as prognostic marker and putative therapeutic target in sporadic colorectal cancer.
