[Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy in a patient with myocarditis] [Miyokarditli bir hastada somatostatin reseptör sintigrafisi] [PDF]
We report a case of myocarditis imaged with technetium-99m octreotide cardiac single-photon emission computed tomography which showed diffuse uptake in the myocardium, indicating inflammatory reaction to myocardial damage.

Astrocytes Modulate Somatostatin Interneuron Signaling in the Visual Cortex
At glutamatergic synapses, astrocytes respond to the neurotransmitter glutamate with intracellular Ca2+ elevations and the release of gliotransmitters that modulate synaptic transmission.

PET Imaging of Perceptual Learning-Induced Changes in the Aged Rodent Cholinergic System
The cholinergic system enhances attention and gates plasticity, making it a major regulator of adult learning. With aging, however, progressive degeneration of the cholinergic system impairs both the acquisition of new skills and functional recovery ...

Somatostatin and somatostatin receptors in Cushing's disease [PDF]
Cushing's disease is caused by an ACTH secreting pituitary adenoma. Surgery is the treatment of choice and cure rates between 60 and 90% are reported. For patients in which surgery fails, effective medical treatment options are needed. Somatostatin (SS) receptors (sst) are expressed on normal and tumoral corticotroph cells.

Long Acting Somatostatin Analogue: Clinical Potential for Gastrointestinal Disease
Name somatostatin is found throughout the gastrointestinal tract and has a wide variety of biological actions. Nevertheless, its short biological half-life and limited stability necessitate its use via continuous parenteral infusion and, thus, limits its

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 ...

π‐Extended COUPY dyes, obtained by vinylogation of coumarin‐based COUPY scaffolds, shift absorption, and emission deep into the NIR region while preserving compactness and synthetic accessibility. These bright, photostable dyes enable live‐cell imaging, FLIM, and site‐specific peptide conjugation, offering a modular platform for targeted bioimaging and

Contribution of liver nerves, glucagon, and adrenaline to the glycaemic response to exercise in rats [PDF]
The contribution of hepatic sympathetic innervation, glucagon and adrenaline to the glycaemic response to exercise was investigated in rats. Hepatically denervated (LDX) or sham operated (SHAM) rats with permanent catheters were therefore submitted to ...

19F NMR spectroscopy monitors ligand binding to recombinantly fluorine-labelled b'x from human protein disulphide isomerase (hPDI) [PDF]
We report a protein-observe (19)F NMR-based ligand titration binding study of human PDI b'x with ?-somatostatin that also emphasises the need to optimise recombinant protein fluorination when using 5- or 6-fluoroindole.
