Biochemical factors in the blood serum of neuroendocrine tumor patients with carcinoid syndrome

open access: yesУспехи молекулярной онкологии, 2022
Introduction. Carcinoid syndrome is the most common functional syndrome in patients with neuroendocrine tumors. More than 40 biochemical factors are responsible for the manifestation of carcinoid syndrome, among which serotonin is the most important. The

The role of N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide, chromogranin A, and 5‐hydroxyindoleacetic acid in screening for carcinoid heart disease

open access: yesJournal of neuroendocrinology, 2023
Carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is a serious complication for patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), and early detection is crucial. We aimed to investigate N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP), chromogranin A (CgA), and plasma 5 ...

Patent foramen ovale in carcinoid heart disease: The potential role for and risks of percutaneous closure prior to cardiothoracic surgery

open access: yesJournal of neuroendocrinology, 2023
Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are rare but once metastasised, can lead to the release of vasoactive substances into the systemic circulation, and the classical features of carcinoid syndrome (CS) such as flushing and diarrhoea.

Metabolic Signatures of Lung Cancer in Biofluids: NMR-Based Metabonomics of Blood Plasma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this work, the variations in the metabolic profile of blood plasma from lung cancer patients and healthy controls were investigated through NMR-based metabonomics, to assess the potential of this approach for lung cancer screening and diagnosis.
