Magnetic resonance imaging as a predictor of therapeutic response to pasireotide in acromegaly
Abstract Objective Hyperintensity signal in T2‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been related to better therapeutic response during pasireotide treatment in acromegaly. The aim of the study was to evaluate T2 MRI signal intensity and its relation with pasireotide therapeutic effectiveness in real‐life clinical practice. Design, Patients and

A dominant-negative FGF1 mutant (the R50E mutant) suppresses tumorigenesis and angiogenesis. [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factor-1 (FGF1) and FGF2 play a critical role in angiogenesis, a formation of new blood vessels from existing blood vessels. Integrins are critically involved in FGF signaling through crosstalk. We previously reported that FGF1 directly

Combined treatment of somatostatin analogues with pegvisomant in acromegaly [PDF]
Treatment of acromegaly with monotherapy long-acting somatostatin analogues (LA-SSA) as primary treatment or after neurosurgery can only achieve complete normalization of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) in roughly 40 % of patients.
