  1. 11. Neuroendocrine tumors of the digestive system : Modulation of apoptosis and factors associated with growth regulation during biotherapies

    Författare :S. A. Hassan Imam; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicine; medicin;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroendocrine tumors of the gut have the potential to create life-threatening syndromes which become difficult to treat. Tumor mass reduction, by medical therapy, is one of the choices of treatments. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Lutetium-177-octreotate treatment of small intestine neuroendocrine tumors - Radiation biology as basis for optimization

    Författare :Johan Spetz; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy; PRRT; somatostatin receptors; SSTR; midgut carcinoid; radiogenomics;

    Sammanfattning : Patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) often have metastatic spread at the time of diagnosis. NETs frequently express somatostatin receptors (SSTR) that can be targeted by radiolabeled somatostatin analogs (e.g. 177Lu-octreotate). LÄS MER

  4. 13. Vesicle proteins as markers for neuroendocrine tumors

    Författare :Anne-Marie Levin Jakobsen; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Neuroendocrine tumours; gastrointestinal tract; pancreas; adrenal; vesicle proteins; ; SV2; NESP55; VMAT1; VMAT2; MIBG;

    Sammanfattning : The neuroendocrine (NE) tumours comprise a diversity of tumours which share commonproperties, e.g. the capacity to produce, store and release hormones. A prominent feature ofthe NE phenotype is the production of secretory granules with associated vescicle proteins,e. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Therapy of neuroendocrine tumors with 177Lu-octreotate - Human tumor cell types and models and optimization of treatment : Terapi av neuroendokrina tumörer med 177Lu-octreotate

    Författare :Johanna Dalmo; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; somatostatin; radionuclide therapy; receptor up-regulation; RBP; nephrotoxicity;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroendocrine (NE) tumors (NET) have often metastasized at the time of diagnose, which makes it hard to cure patients with NET. Radiolabeled hormone analogues (especially somatostatin analogues, SS) can be used for diagnostics (e.g. 111In-octreotide) and therapy (e. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 : clinical and molecular characterization

    Författare :Bin Tean Teh; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :MEN1; PYGM; loss of heterozygosity; thymic carcinoid; HPT-JT; HRPT2; FIHP; familial acromegaly; tumor suppressor gene.;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on clinicopathologic and genetic studies of MEN1 and MEN1-like syndromes. Linkage to the MENl locus in chromosome 11q13 was confirmed in the largest known MEN1 family and 5 Swedish MEN1 families. An accuracy of >99. LÄS MER
