Some tumor cells can secrete and express Neurotensin and Neurotensin receptors themselves suggesting that Neurotensin '''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autocrine_signalling autocrine]''', '''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endocrine_system endocrine]''' and '''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracrine_signalling paracrine]''' regulation are possible. This leads to aggressive growth and tumor development. Injecting animals with Neurotensin increased tumor growth and size, while injecting them with Neurotensin antagonist had the opposite effect <ref name="cancer"/>. Neurotensin regulation may be used in future cancer treatments.
