Successful medical management of insulinoma with diazoxide for 27 years

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports, 2020
Summary Despite improvements in localisation techniques and surgical advances, some patients with insulinoma will not be cured by surgery or may not be suitable for surgery. Medical management with diazoxide is an option for such cases.

Acanthosis nigricans in a patient with metastatic insulinoma post peptide receptor radionuclide therapy

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports, 2022
Acanthosis nigricans (AN) is a common dermatosis associated with hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance. However, AN has been rarely reported in patients with insulinoma, a state of persistent hyperinsulinemia. We present a case of metastatic insulinoma,

Insulinoma in childhood. [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Disease in Childhood, 1969
Hypoglycaemia is an important cause of cerebral damage in childhood. While much attention has recently been directed to its detection and treatment in the neonatal period, in later childhood the diagnosis is often delayed. There are many possible causes of hypoglycaemia in childhood, but in only a minority of cases is a precise diagnosis made, the ...

Exendin‐4 analogs in insulinoma theranostics

open access: yesJournal of labelled compounds & radiopharmaceuticals, 2019
Insulinomas, neuroendocrine tumors arising from pancreatic beta cells, often show overexpression of the glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor. Therefore, imaging with glucagon‐like peptide analog exendin‐4 can be used for diagnosis and preoperative ...

Deficiency of Leucine‐Rich Repeat Containing G Protein‐Coupled Receptor 4 in Pancreas Reduces β Cell Mass

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In islet β cells, LGR4 binds with Rspondin to activate the Wnt‐β‐catenin‐Ccnd1 axis, leading to a subsequent increase in cell proliferation. On the other hand, LGR4 also binds with RANKL, thus suppressing the phosphorylation of p44/p42 MAPK and p65 NF‐κB and subsequent cell apoptosis.
