The long-acting somatostatin analogue octreotide alleviates symptoms by reducing posttranslational conversion of prepro-glucagon to glucagon in a patient with malignant glucagonoma, but does not prevent tumor growth [PDF]

, 1994
A 52-year-old female with metastatic glucagonoma secreting glucagon and chromogranin A was treated with the somatostatin analogue octreotide for 2 years without any additional tumor-reducing interventions. Before therapy plasma glucagon was above 8 μg/l (

E-cadherin expression is associated with somatostatin analogue response in acromegaly [PDF]

, 2018
Acromegaly is a rare disease resulting from hypersecretion of growth hormone (GH) and insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF1) typically caused by pituitary adenomas, which is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Somatostatin analogues (SSAs)

Permeation Enhancer‐based Ionogel Shows Remarkable Potential for Oral Insulin Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study proposes a novel formulation of decanoate in an ionic liquid inspired drug delivery system. The formulation demonstrates ideal physicochemical and material properties for oral peptide delivery. Findings indicate that choline decanoate (1:2 molar ratio) forms a viscoelastic gel that enables high oral bioavailability of insulin in rats ...

Non‐Invasive Diagnosis of Chronic Myocardial Infarction via Composite In‐Silico‐Human Data Learning

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a non‐invasive machine learning model to identify infarct regions in the left ventricle using cardiac strain data. By combining rodent‐based simulated data with limited human data, the model achieves high accuracy in predicting infarct size and location without the need for gadolinium contrast agents, offering a promising ...

Peptide‐Based Biomaterials as a Promising Tool for Cancer Radiotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review provides a systematic overview of peptide‐based biomaterials in tumor radiotherapy, covering their roles as both radiosensitizers and radiopharmaceuticals. Peptide‐based radiosensitizers are generally divided into three categories: peptides as direct radiosensitizers, peptides as carriers of radiosensitizers, and targeted‐peptide‐modified ...

Octreotide and chylothorax

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2006
This article reviews the current literature concerning the role of somatostatin and its synthetic analogue, octreotide, in the treatment of chylothorax.Management of chylothorax includes evacuation of the pleural cavity through a chest tube to alleviate dyspnoea, and dietary fat restriction aimed at reducing lymph flow.

Enhancing Diagnostic Accuracy in Sinonasal Neuroendocrine Tumors: The Case for DOTATATE PET Over FDG PET

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms that arise from neuroendocrine cells and commonly originate in the GI tract, lungs, and pancreas, but can also present in the skull base and paranasal sinuses. While fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) scans are routinely used in the evaluation of ...

Strategies for optimization of hypoglycemia rat models

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This review focuses on rat models for studying the short‐term and long‐term effects of mild and severe hypoglycemia. We explored the physiological mechanisms to understand the consequences of hypoglycemia in rat experimental models. This study sheds light on uncovering the therapeutic potential for hypoglycemic patients and its efficacy in mitigating ...
