Antitumoral activity of bombesin analogues on small cell lung cancer xenografts: relationship with bombesin receptor expression.
Gastrin releasing peptide (GRP), the human homologue of bombesin (BN), is an autocrine growth factor for small cell lung cancer (SCLC) cells. The synthetic octapeptides [D-cpa1-beta-Leu8-des-Met9]litorin (BIM 26182) and [D-Phe6-Leu13-CH2NH-Cpa14]bombesin(6-14)NH2 (BIM 26189) are potent GRP/BN antagonists of the proliferation of 3T3 and rat pancreas cells. The effect of these analogues on the pr...
متن کاملPeptide receptor imaging of prostate cancer with radiolabelled bombesin analogues.
Prostate Cancer (PC) is a type of cancer that is often diagnosed at very early stages due to improved detection among man in the Western world. Current imaging techniques are not optimal to determine extent of minimal early stage PC even though this is of great clinical importance. Human PC and high-grade PIN have shown high Gastrin-Releasing Peptide Receptor (GRPR) expression, while normal pro...
متن کاملdes-Met carboxyl-terminally modified analogues of bombesin function as potent bombesin receptor antagonists, partial agonists, or agonists.
In the present study we examined the effect of carboxyl-terminal modifications of des-Met14-bombesin (Bn) on Bn receptor affinity in murine 3T3 cells, rat and guinea pig pancreatic acini, and the ability to initiate biologic responses by synthesizing 18 des-Met14-Bn(6-13) analogues. With guinea pig acini and 3T3 cells, affinity was affected by the chain length of the alkyl moiety (R) added to [...
متن کاملInteractions of bombesin and substance P at the feline lower esophageal sphincter.
The purpose of this study was to determine the interactions between bombesin and substance P at the feline lower esophageal sphincter (LES). Intraluminal pressures were recorded using a fixed, perfused catheter assembly. Myoelectrical activity was recorded using bipolar Ag-AgCl serosal electrodes. Bombesin, i.v., gave a dose-dependent increase in LES pressure and electronically counted spike ac...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical localization of bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide and substance P in primary sensory neurons.
The existence of bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide-like immunoreactivity (BN-GRP-LI) in rat sensory ganglia and spinal cord was confirmed using immunocytochemistry, gel filtration chromatography, and high performance liquid chromatography combined with radioimmunoassay. Immunohistochemical studies showed that in the spinal sensory ganglia of the rat about 5% of the neurons exhibited BN-GRP-LI,...
