A Case of Streptozocin Monotherapy for Unresectable Duodenal Neuroendocrine Tumor G2
Background: Duodenal neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are rare, and few reports have demonstrated the effectiveness of chemotherapy for duodenal NET, with not many other treatment options available. Here, we present a case of unresectable duodenal NET G2 that

In patients with NELM, those with < 8 liver metastases and G1/2 tumors are the favorable candidates for liver resection. The important point of this study is that the patients who do not meet the above criteria should be considered for multidisciplinary treatment because of their extremely shorter recurrence‐free period.

Evaluation of the leaves of Ipomoea aquatica for its hypoglycemic and antioxidant activity [PDF]
The present study was accomplished to explore the hypoglycemic and antioxidant activity of methanolic extracts of the leaves of I.aquatica. The animals used to test the antidiabetic activity were Swiss albino mice of 7-8 weeks, average weight 20-30 gm of

The long-acting somatostatin analogue octreotide alleviates symptoms by reducing posttranslational conversion of prepro-glucagon to glucagon in a patient with malignant glucagonoma, but does not prevent tumor growth [PDF]
A 52-year-old female with metastatic glucagonoma secreting glucagon and chromogranin A was treated with the somatostatin analogue octreotide for 2 years without any additional tumor-reducing interventions. Before therapy plasma glucagon was above 8 μg/l (

Stimulation of glucose utilization in 3T3 adipocytes and rat diaphragm in vitro by the sulphonylureas, glimepiride and glibenclamide, is correlated with modulations of the cAMP regulatory cascade [PDF]
The long-term hypoglycemic activity of sulphonylurea drugs has been attributed, in part at least, to the stimulation of glucose utilization in extra-pancreatic tissues. The novel sulphonylurea, glimepiride, gives rise to a longer lasting reduction in the

Somatostatin analogs in neuroendocrine tumors with Ki‐67 index of ≥10%
Abstract Somatostatin analogs (SSAs) are an established first‐line therapy in intestinal and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Based on Phase III studies, their use is recommended in NET with a Ki‐67 index of up to 10%. The effect of first‐line SSA therapy on differentiated NET with a Ki‐67 index ≥10% is poorly understood.
