Somatostatin Receptor 2–Targeting Compounds [PDF]
The molecular imaging and treatment of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs represent a milestone in the development of theranostic compounds. Whole-body scintigraphy with 111In-pentetreotide has revolutionized the diagnosis and staging of NETs and the evaluation of treatment outcomes. At present, diagnostic accuracy with

Lung neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) encompass the low-, intermediate-, and high-grade entities. Differentiated NENs overexpress somatostatin receptors, which are targeted by 68Ga-DOTA-conjugated peptides in molecular imaging with positron emission ...

Somatostatin and Somatostatin Receptors in Tumour Biology
Somatostatin (SST), a growth hormone inhibitory peptide, is expressed in endocrine and non-endocrine tissues, immune cells and the central nervous system (CNS). Post-release from secretory or immune cells, the first most appreciated role that SST exhibits is the antiproliferative effect in target tissue that served as a potential therapeutic ...

Mirtazapine decreases stimulatory effects of reboxetine on cortisol, adrenocorticotropin and prolactin secretion in healthy male subjects [PDF]
Reboxetine is a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, whereas mirtazapine acts as an antagonist at noradrenergic alpha(2), serotonin (5-HT2), 5-HT3 and histamine H-1 receptors.

Somatostatinergic systems: an update on brain functions in normal and pathological aging
Somatostatin is highly expressed in mammalian brain and is involved in many brain functions such as motor activity, sleep, sensory and cognitive processes. Five somatostatin receptors have been described: sst1, sst2 (A and B), sst3 to 5, all belonging to

Radioiodinated somatostatin analogue RC-160: preparation, biological activity, in vivo application in rats and comparison with [123I-Tyr3]octreotide [PDF]
We have evaluated the potential usefulness of the radioiodinated octapeptide RC-160, a somatostatin analogue, which might serve as a radiopharmaceutical for the in vivo detection of somatostatin receptor-positive tumours. For this purpose, iodine-123 and

Somatostatin receptor imaging. the presence of somatostatin receptors in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
AbstractObjective. To investigate the in vivo and in vitro expression of somatostatin receptors (SS‐R) on synovial membranes of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods. The joints of 14 consecutive patients with active RA, 4 patients with severe osteoarthritis (OA), and 30 control patients were studied.

Cholecystokinin and Somatostatin Negatively Affect Growth of the Somatostatin-RIN-14B Cells
With the exclusive presence of the pancreatic CCK-2 receptors on the pancreatic delta cells of six different species, this study was undertaken to determine the role of cholecystokinin and gastrin on growth of these somatostatin (SS) cells.
