Objectives. To evaluate, in children with Silver-Russell Syndrome, the response to the IGF-I and IGFBP-3 generation test and compare results to the growth response after 6 months of rhGH. Methods. Eight children (6 males), with a mean age of 5.71 ± 2.48 years and height SDS of -3.88 ± 1.28 received rhGH for 6 months. IGF-I and IGFBP-3 were analyzed before and after 4 doses of rhGH. Results. The...
Neutron reflectivity studies of EuS/SrS, EuS/PbSe and EuS/PbTe all-semiconductor superlattices were carried out in a search for exchange interlayer coupling. A relatively weak antiferromagnetic coupling was found in EuS/SrS and EuS/PbSe systems but no interlayer coupling was detected in EuS/PbTe superlattices. In EuS/SrS, where the SrS spacer is an insulator (E(g)≈4 eV), a very weak and short r...
neuroendocrine tumors (nets) constitute a heterogeneous group of neoplasms including carcinoids, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, pituitary tumors, medullary thyroid carcinoma and phaeochromocytomas. the symptoms and the outcome of nets differ considerably between patients depending on several factors. by labelling tracers with a radioisotope, the tracer acts as a carrier to deliver the radioa...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of somatostatin analog scintigraphy with indium-111-pentetreotide and its overall impact on management in patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NET). SUBJECTS AND METHODS Twenty-two consecutive patients with a proven or clinically suspected GEP-NET with or without proven metastases were imaged at 24 and 48 h after injection of (111)...
Somatostatin receptors (ssts) are expressed in thyroid cancer cells, but their biological significance is not well understood. The aim of this study was to assess ssts in well differentiated (WDTC) and poorly differentiated thyroid cancer (PDTC) by means of imaging and molecular tools and its relationship with the efficacy of somatostatin analog treatment. Thirty-nine cases of thyroid carcinoma...
In animal models the somatostatin analog angiopeptin inhibits intimal hyperplasia by acting primarily through somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR-2). However, the results of clinical trials using angiopeptin have been disappointing. In this study we showed that human blood vessels express high levels of SSTR-1 with significantly lower levels of SSTR-2 and -4. Samples of normal veins and arteries, as ...
The use of radiolabeled peptide ligands as diagnostics and therapeutics in nuclear oncology has increased recently. One of the most frequently used radiopharmaceutical is 99mTc-EDDA/HYNIC-TOC, a somatostatin analog with affinity for certain types of somatostatin receptors, overexpressed in tumors of neuroendocrine origin. The radiopharmaceutical is not readily available; therefore we introduced...
Octreotide is a potent somatostatin analog that inhibits growth hormone (GH) release and restricts somatotrope cell growth. The long-acting octreotide formulation Sandostatin LAR is effective clinically in approximately 60% of patients with acromegaly. Tumoral GH secretion in this disorder is characterized by increases in pulse amplitude and frequency, nonpulsatile (basal) release, and irregula...
