Hyaluronan network remodeling by ZEB1 and ITIH2 enhances the motility and invasiveness of cancer cells [PDF]
Hyaluronan (HA) in the extracellular matrix promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastasis; however, the mechanism by which the HA network constructed by cancer cells regulates cancer progression and metastasis in the tumor ...

Reply: Sincalide-Stimulated Cholescintigraphy: What Is the Standard? [PDF]
REPLY: The purpose of our investigation was to determine a sincalide infusion methodology that has the least variability (lowest coefficient of variation) by comparing 3 methods (15-, 30-, and 60-min infusions of 0.02 μg/kg) and to establish reference values ( [1][1] ).

Sincalide: A Review of Clinical Utility, Proper Infusion Methodology, and Alternative Cholecystogogues [PDF]
Sincalide (Kinevac) is widely used in conjunction with cholescintigraphy for a variety of clinical indications. Over the years, numerous publications have verified the optimal infusion methodology. Published data and consensus recommendations emphasize that sincalide, 0.02 μg/kg, should be infused over 60 min.

Classification Schema of Symptomatic Enterogastric Reflux Utilizing Sincalide Augmentation on Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy [PDF]
Enterogastric reflux (EGR) is the reflux of duodenal contents into the stomach. Hepatobiliary scintigraphy provides physiologic assessment of the biliary system and was used to test the hypothesis that presence and timing of EGR may be associated with infusion of sincalide, a surrogate of endogenous cholecystokinin.One hundred fifty-seven hepatobiliary

Sincalide-Stimulated Cholescintigraphy: What Is the Standard? [PDF]
TO THE EDITOR: The article by Ziessman et al. adds to the further understanding of gallbladder physiology and the effect of cholecystokinin (CCK) stimulation ( [1][1] ). They suggest considering a 38% gallbladder ejection fraction (GBEF) as the lower limit of normal for a 0.02 μg/kg infusion of ...

Cholecystokinetic cholecystography: efficacy and tolerance study of sincalide [PDF]
The intravenous administration of sincalide, the C-terminal octapeptide fragment of cholecystokinin, affords safe and effective means for gallbladder contraction with resultant cystic and common bile duct visualization. Intravenous sincalide circumvents the problem of unpredictability of response of the gallbladder to a fatty meal and variability in ...
