Treatment options for PNET liver metastases. a systematic review [PDF]

, 2018
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) are rare pancreatic neoplasms. About 40-80% of patients with PNET are metastatic at presentation, usually involving the liver (40-93%). Liver metastasis represents the most significant prognostic factor.

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.

In rats, neurodevelopmental disorders induced by maternal hypoxia are associated with attenuated excitatory neurotransmission in the cingulate cortex

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Maternal hypoxia is a recognised risk factor for neurodevelopmental disorders in offspring. Although rodent models of hypoxia have been reported, the detailed pathogenesis of maternal hypoxia‐induced neurodevelopmental disorders remains unclear.

The decrease in growth hormone (GH) response after repeated stimulation with GH-Releasing hormone is partly caused by an elevation of somatostatin tonus. [PDF]

, 1996
Repeated injection of GHRH leads to a decrease in the GH response in normal subjects. Arginine (Arg) stimulates GH secretion by suppression of hypothalamic somatostatin.

Prevention of microglial activation and postoperative cognitive deficits by positive allosteric modulation of α5‐GABAA receptors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Long‐lasting cognitive deficits after surgery in aged individuals, referred to as perioperative neurocognitive disorder (NCD), are a significant public health concern. Such postoperative cognitive deficits are dependent on the presence of microglia in the brain, which, when activated, trigger neuroinflammation.

Cardiovascular toxicity from immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy: an inflammatory continuum

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy has markedly improved outcomes in advanced malignancies but has also revealed a distinct spectrum of cardiovascular immune‐related adverse events. Myocarditis represents the most severe manifestation, while non‐inflammatory left ventricular dysfunction and vascular inflammation have emerged as additional ...

Pasireotide Long-Acting Release Treatment for Diabetic Cats with Underlying Hypersomatotropism [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Long‐term medical management of hypersomatotropism (HS) in cats has proved unrewarding. Pasireotide, a novel somatostatin analogue, decreases serum insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF‐1) and improves insulin sensitivity in cats with HS when ...
