Neuron-specific enolase (NSE) is a dimeric glycolytic enzyme predominantly localized to neurons and neuroendocrine cells. It exists in two isoforms: (neuron-specific) and (neuroendocrine-specific). NSE is a tumor marker in oncology, particularly for small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) and other neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Serum elevations can assist in diagnosis, staging, prognostication, and monitoring treatment response, often correlating with tumor burden and metastatic disease.
