Acromegaly: pathogenesis & treatment [PDF]
, 2019 Acromegaly is a multi-system disorder whose etiology is most often traced back to a growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenoma (PA). Growth hormone (GH) secretion promotes insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) release from peripheral tissues, leading to ...

Somatostatin Receptor 2–Targeting Compounds [PDF]
Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2017 The molecular imaging and treatment of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs represent a milestone in the development of theranostic compounds. Whole-body scintigraphy with 111In-pentetreotide has revolutionized the diagnosis and staging of NETs and the evaluation of treatment outcomes. At present, diagnostic accuracy with

Mirtazapine decreases stimulatory effects of reboxetine on cortisol, adrenocorticotropin and prolactin secretion in healthy male subjects [PDF]
, 2004 Reboxetine is a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, whereas mirtazapine acts as an antagonist at noradrenergic alpha(2), serotonin (5-HT2), 5-HT3 and histamine H-1 receptors.

Somatostatinergic systems: an update on brain functions in normal and pathological aging
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2012 Somatostatin is highly expressed in mammalian brain and is involved in many brain functions such as motor activity, sleep, sensory and cognitive processes. Five somatostatin receptors have been described: sst1, sst2 (A and B), sst3 to 5, all belonging to

Cholecystokinin and Somatostatin Negatively Affect Growth of the Somatostatin-RIN-14B Cells
International Journal of Endocrinology, 2009 With the exclusive presence of the pancreatic CCK-2 receptors on the pancreatic delta cells of six different species, this study was undertaken to determine the role of cholecystokinin and gastrin on growth of these somatostatin (SS) cells.

A Transgenic Rat for Investigating the Anatomy and Function of Corticotrophin Releasing Factor Circuits. [PDF]
, 2015 Corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) is a 41 amino acid neuropeptide that coordinates adaptive responses to stress. CRF projections from neurons in the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) to the brainstem are of particular interest for their role in ...

Somatostatin receptor imaging. the presence of somatostatin receptors in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Arthritis & Rheumatism, 1994 AbstractObjective. To investigate the in vivo and in vitro expression of somatostatin receptors (SS‐R) on synovial membranes of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods. The joints of 14 consecutive patients with active RA, 4 patients with severe osteoarthritis (OA), and 30 control patients were studied.
