  1. 1. Somatostatin effects on the proteome of human prostate cancer cells

    Författare :Zhaoxu Liu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The transition of prostate cancer from androgen dependent to the therapy resistant androgen independent state, is a large and persistent problem in the clinical management of prostate cancer. The aim of this thesis was to study somatostatin effects on the proteome of prostate cancer cells, to identify differences in protein expression in androgen dependent and androgen independent prostate cancer cells, and to explore possibilities to enhance the somatostatin receptor expression through pre-treatment with sms, 5-aza and TSA (DNA methylation/HDAC inhibitors).

  3. 2. Somatostatin, dendritic cells and peptide T in psoriasis : a clinical, immunohistochemical and functional study

    Författare :Toomas Talme; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Peptide T is an octapeptide designed to block the CD4 receptor. In a phase 1 study 9 psoriasis patients were treated with 2 mg peptide T i.v. once daily for 28 days and followed for a further 3 months. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Small intestine neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) and lung carcinoids (LCs) are relatively indolent tumors, which originate from neuroendocrine (NE) cells of the diffuse NE system. Metastases can spread before diagnosis. Thus, potential cures become unavailable, which entitles new biomarker development. LÄS MER

  5. 4. PET/CT with 18F-FDG and 68Ga-DOTATOC in pulmonary carcinoid imaging

    Författare :Natalja Uhlén; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: PET/CT, positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography, with 18F-FDG (2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose) is well established in oncological imaging. Pulmonary carcinoid tumours may have metabolic activity, making them available for PET/CT imaging with 18F-FDG. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Nuclear medicine imaging of lung cancer and esophagus cancer

    Författare :Gunnar Herlin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Lung cancer;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) occur in cancer tissue, and 99mTc-depreotide is a labelled somatostatin receptor analogue, binding to SSTRs subtype 2, 3, and 5. Purpose: The general aim of the present thesis was to study somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SSTRS) with 99mTc-depreotide in the diagnosis and characterization of cancers in the lung and oesophagus.
