4% Somatostatin Analogue Predisposes Enterocytes to Apoptosis
URL: http://www.ssat.com/jgs0202/167.htm
Summary: Normal ileal mucosa adjacent to the patch was evaluated at 7 days for
villus height,
crypt depth, crypt cell production rate (CCPR), and in situ end labeling of DNA
fragmentation. The
two control groups had similar villus height, crypt depth, and CCPR The two
octreotide-treated
groups had similar villus height and CCPR compared to control animals.

64% Acromegaly & Octreotide
URL: http://brain.mgh.harvard.edu:100/e-f-943.htm
Summary: The pulsatile release of growth hormone (GH) by normal somatotroph
cells is regulated
by growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH), which stimulates GH secretion, and
somatostatin,
which decreases secretion. A PET scan is used to localize binding of the
radiolabeled octreotide to
the pituitary adenoma, and binding of the radiolabeled octreotide suggests the
presence of
octreotide receptors.

63% p53 and p21 in Immune Complex Alveolitis
URL: http://pandora.med.yale.edu/labinvest/abstracts/97mar/7634.html
Summary: We examined the effects of octreotide on the vascular IGF-I and
IGF-binding proteins
(IGFBP), gene regulation, smooth muscle cell proliferation, and neointimal
thickening after arterial
wall injury. The inhibitory effects of octreotide on vascular IGF-I were
associated with a decrease
in the number of proliferating cell nuclear antigen-positive cells and an up to
90% reduction in
neointimal.

Summary: 6, 1991 REDUCTION OF REFRACTORY AIDS-ASSOCIATED DIARRHEA
WITH OCTREOTIDE A prospective, open-label, multicenter trial of patients with
AIDS or
AIDS-related complex (ARC), and complaining of severe diarrhea, tested the
efficacy of
subcutaneous octreotide (O) for diarrhea reduction. The study found that high
doses of O resulted
in stool volumes that were significantly reduced from baseline.

Summary: First the 88Y-DTPA-peptide-system was investigated with regard to
complexation
kinetics, stability constants and lipophilicity to obtain information about the
radiodiagnostical
86Y-[DTPA-(D)Phe1]-Octreotide and the potential endotherapeutical
90Y-[DTPA-(D)Phe1]Octreotide. The second aspect includes the insertion of
different linker
structures in [DFOB-Succinyl-(D)Phe1]-Octreotide type.

Summary: A recent study demonstrated the presence of somatostatin receptors on
a variety of
mesenchymal tumors, including leiomyosarcomas, by in vitro receptor
autoradiography on cryostat
specimens (Cancer Research 56:1922, 1996). The use of radiolabeled octreotide

Summary: Urinary cortisol excretion normalized and remained steadily within
normal limits in three
of four patients in whom normal UFC excretion had never been attained with both
single drug
regimens; in the fourth patient, UFC excretion decreased to levels lower than
those achieved with
ketoconazole or octreotide alone. [Next Article] [Previous Article] [Current
