The quantitative distribution and localisation of seven regulatory peptides (vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), peptide histidine methionine (PHM), calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP), galanin, substance P, neuropeptide tyrosine (Y), and bombesin like peptides) were determined by radioimmunoassay and immunocytochemistry in six different regions of the respiratory tract of the cynomolgus mo...
Although activation of G protein-coupled inward rectifying K+ (GIRK) channels by Gi/Go-coupled receptors has been shown to be important in postsynaptic inhibition in the central nervous system, there is also evidence to suggest that inhibition of GIRK channels by Gq-coupled receptors is involved in postsynaptic excitation. In the present study we addressed whether the Gq-coupled receptors of th...
Using the methods of immunocytochemistry and radioimmunoassay, five peptides (vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), substance P, somatostatin, met-enkephalin, and bombesin) have been found in the gall bladder and the biliary tracts of guinea pig and each of them possesses a characteristic distribution pattern. Networks of nerves containing each peptide were found in the smooth muscle, around...
Gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) receptors are over-expressed in various human tumor including breast and prostate which can be targeted with bombesin for diagnosis and targeted therapy. High abdominal accumulation and the poor in vivo stability of radiolabeled bombesin analogues may represent a limitation for diagnostic imaging and targeted therapy. In this study a new bombesin derivative was l...
The cytotoxic analog of bombesin (BN)/gastrin releasing peptide (GRP) AN-215 consisting of 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (AN-201), a superactive derivative of doxorubicin linked to a bombesin analog carrier, displays a high affinity to BN/GRP receptors and can be targeted to tumors that express these receptors. We evaluated the antitumor effect and the toxicity of AN-215 in 5 human breast cancer cell ...
Bombesin-like peptides (BLPs) are mitogens for bronchial epithelial cells and small cell lung carcinomas, and increase fetal lung growth and maturation in utero and in organ cultures. BLPs are hydrolyzed by the enzyme CD10/neutral endopeptidase 24.11 (CD10/NEP) which is expressed in bronchial epithelium and functions to inhibit BLP-mediated growth of small cell lung carcinomas. To determine whe...
Synthetic human pancreatic GH-releasing factor (1-44)NH2 (GRF) and acetylcholine (ACh) were shown to evoke a dose-related release of GH from cultured bovine pituitary cells with half-maximal effective doses of 0.3 and 500 nmol/l respectively. Concentrations of ACh (10 mumol/l) and GRF (25 nmol/l) which were shown to give near maximal responses when presented alone, produced highly synergistic r...
Hexadecylphosphocholine (HePC) inhibits protein kinase C (PKC) from NIH3T3 cells in cell-free extracts with a 50% inhibitory concentration of about 7 microM. Inhibition is competitive with regard to phosphatidylserine with a Ki of 0.59 microM. In order to determine whether HePC affects PKC in intact cells, the bombesin or tetradecanoylphorbolacetate-induced, PKC-mediated activation of the Na+/H...
Radioimmunotherapy is hindered by a variety of factors linked to the utilization of monoclonal antibodies. These limitations include restricted tumor penetration as well as low levels of intratumoral antigen expression. To address the latter problem, we used a gene therapy approach to induce tumor cells to express enhanced levels of receptor with high binding affinity for a radiolabeled peptide...
The effects of 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), bombesin and insulin on 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase (PFK-2) activity, on fructose 2,6-bisphosphate concentration and on the phosphorylation state of PFK-2 were investigated in primary cultures of hepatocytes from foetal and adult rats. Bombesin stimulated PFK-2 activity and increased hexose phosphate (glucose 6-phosphate and fructose 6-p...
