Characterization of Somatostatin Receptor Subtype 2 Expression in Stably Transfected A-427 Human Cancer Cells

open access: yesMolecular Imaging, 2007
Although radiolabeled somatostatin analogs have become highly prevalent in the diagnosis and treatment of somatostatin receptor subtype (sst)-positive tumors, there are relatively few options with respect to sst-positive tumor cell lines and animal ...

Somatostatin and dopamine receptors as targets for medical treatment of Cushing's Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Somatostatin (SS) and dopamine (DA) receptors are widely expressed in neuroendocrine tumours that cause Cushing's Syndrome (CS). Increasing knowledge of specific subtype expression within these tumours and the ability to target these receptor subtypes ...

Acromegaly: Beyond surgery

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
Acromegaly is characterized by chronic, excess secretion of growth hormone (GH) from a pituitary adenoma, and elevated hepatic insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels.

Glucocorticoid Receptor Antagonism Upregulates Somatostatin Receptor Subtype 2 Expression in ACTH-Producing Neuroendocrine Tumors: New Insight Based on the Selective Glucocorticoid Receptor Modulator Relacorilant

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Somatostatin exhibits an inhibitory effect on pituitary hormone secretion, including inhibition of growth hormone and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), and it can have antisecretory and antitumor effects on neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) that express ...

SSTR1 and SSTR5 subtypes are the dominant forms of somatostatin receptor in neuroendocrine tumors.

open access: yesFolia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2010
The effectiveness of the long acting somatostatin analogues like octreotide and lanreotide depends on the expression of specific somatostatin receptors on the target cells.

Internalization of the radioiodinated somatostatin analog [125I-Tyr3]octreotide by mouse and human pituitary tumor cells: increase by unlabeled octreotide [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Recently, we developed a technique that allows the in vivo visualization in man of somatostatin receptor-positive neuroendocrine tumors after i.v.

Time spent with cats is never wasted: Lessons learned from feline acromegalic cardiomyopathy, a naturally occurring animal model of the human disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BackgroundIn humans, acromegaly due to a pituitary somatotrophic adenoma is a recognized cause of increased left ventricular (LV) mass. Acromegalic cardiomyopathy is incompletely understood, and represents a major cause of morbidity and mortality.

The Expanding Role of Somatostatin Analogs in Gastroenteropancreatic and Lung Neuroendocrine Tumors

open access: yesDrugs, 2015
Somatostatin analogs (SSAs) were initially developed as antisecretory agents used for the control of hormonal syndromes associated with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs).

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Evaluation of the Dual Impact of Nanotechnologies on Health and Environment Through Alternative Bridging Models

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores how alternative invertebrate and small‐vertebrate models advance the evaluation of nanomaterials across medicine and environmental science. By bridging cellular and organismal levels, these models enable integrated assessment of toxicity, biodistribution, and therapeutic performance.
