Diabetes Secondary to Acromegaly: Physiopathology, Clinical Features and Effects of Treatment

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
Acromegaly is a rare disease due to chronic GH excess and to the consequent increase in IGF-1 levels. Both GH and IGF-1 play a role in intermediate metabolism affecting glucose homeostasis. Indeed, chronic GH excess impairs insulin sensitivity, increases

Assessment of response to PRRT including anatomical and molecular imaging as well as novel biomarkers

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 37, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is an effective treatment for both oncological and hormone control and is a widely accepted standard of care treatment for patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN). Its use is anticipated to increase significantly, and this demands accurate tools and paradigms to assess treatment response post ...
