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 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.

Backbone Protecting Groups for Enhanced Peptide and Protein Synthesis
This review provides a comprehensive account of the use of backbone N‐protecting groups in peptide synthesis. It includes detailed synthetic methods relating to their introduction and removal and their application to “difficult” peptides and proteins of biological significance in both academic and industry contexts.

Cell type-specific long-range connections of basal forebrain circuit
The basal forebrain (BF) plays key roles in multiple brain functions, including sleep-wake regulation, attention, and learning/memory, but the long-range connections mediating these functions remain poorly characterized.

Utility of Somatostatin Receptors in Gastrointestinal Tract and Pancreas Neuroendocrine Tumors
Aim: Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are heterogenous group of tumors. Most of gastroenteropancreatic NETs (GEPNETs) are welldifferentiated low-grade tumors but a subset of them displays aggressive behavior.

Inhibitory neuron map of sevoflurane induced neurotoxicity model in young primates
IntroductionSevoflurane, one of the most commonly used anesthetic agents in children, may induce neuronal dysfunction and cognitive impairment. Exposure to sevoflurane might induce an imbalance between neural excitation and inhibition which could be a ...
