Prolonged survival in a young Dobermann with adrenal neuroblastoma
Abstract A 1‐year‐old Dobermann presented with recurrent episodes of acute diarrhoea and weight loss starting at 5 months of age. An adrenal mass was identified via ultrasound and computed tomography, leading to adrenalectomy. A diagnosis of adrenal neuroblastoma was obtained through histopathology and immunohistochemistry.

Pitolisant, an FDA‐approved H3R antagonist, counteracts the rewarding and sedative effects of ethanol, reduces alcohol intake, and alleviates the negative affect during withdrawal. This might occur via the antagonism of presynaptic autoreceptors and heteroreceptors H3Rs in the lateral habenula, thereby activating the H2R/p‐CREB/BDNF signaling and ...

Modified Pisano Method for Estimating Urinary Metanephrines
Abstract The Pisano method [Clin. Chim. Acta 5, 406 (1960)] for estimating urinary metanephrine, used in the screening of hypertensive persons for pheochromocytoma, has been modified by replacing ion-exchange chromatography with differential solvent extraction.

Correlation between malondialdehyde and metanephrine in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is one of the most common diseases , so in this study the serum level of malondialdehyde and its relationship with metanephrine was investigated in acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients over one month of treatment. Some

Enzyme and acid deconjugation of plasma sulfated metanephrines [PDF]
Total (i.e. free+sulfated) metanephrines in plasma is a biomarker for the diagnosis of pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma. Sulfated metanephrines must be completely deconjugated by perchloric acid hydrolysis or sulfatase treatment prior to analytical measurement to enable quantification by current techniques.

Abstract Early detection of metastases and timely surgical intervention play a crucial role in the management of neuroendocrine tumors. In large‐sized pheochromocytomas and sympathetic paragangliomas (PPGL), functional imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) is recommended, as it improves the detection of metastases, which may go undetected on ...
