Octreotide Does Not Inhibit Proliferation in Five Neuroendocrine Tumor Cell Lines [PDF]
Somatostatin analogs (SSA) are well-established antisecretory drugs in functionally active neuroendocrine tumors (NET). Two placebo-controlled trials have recently demonstrated significant improvement of progression-free survival under SSA treatment ...

RADIONUCLIDE IMAGING AND THERAPY OF NEUROENDOCRINE TUMOURS
The incidence and prevalence of neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are on the rise. Although NETs are a heterogeneous group of tumours, they have some similar properties, for example, that they can concentrate neuroamines and tend to have a high degree of ...

Does PRRT with standard activities of 177Lu-octreotate really achieve relevant somatostatin receptor saturation in target tumor lesions?: insights from intra-therapeutic receptor imaging in patients with metastatic gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors [PDF]
Twenty plantain crop fields were sampled to identify Meloidogyne spp. in Tierralta and Valencia municipalities. Ten soil and root samples per field were taken to obtain the nematodes.

Peptides in Receptor-Mediated Radiotherapy: From Design to the Clinical Application in Cancers [PDF]
Short peptides can show high affinity for specific receptors overexpressed on tumor cells. Some of these are already used in cancerology as diagnostic tools and others are in clinical trials for therapeutic applications. Therefore, peptides exhibit great
