1. 1. Immunofluorescence Investigation on Neuroendocrine Secretory Protein 55 (NESP55) in Nervous Tissues

   Författare :Yongling Li; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NESP55; neuropeptdides; chromogranins; the CAD cell line; rat; spinal cord; sympathetic ganglia; retrograde tracing; immunofluorescence; confocal microscopy; secretory pathway;

   Sammanfattning : The chromogranin family is a group of acidic, soluble, and heat-stable proteins widespread in various neuronal, neuroendocrine and endocrine tissues, where they are subcellullarly located in the secretory granules, participating in the formation of the granules. Extracellularly, chromogranins may act as protein precursors, proteolytically processed to various small bioactive peptides. LÄS MER

3. 2. Midgut carcinoid tumours - biochemical and therapeutic aspects

   Författare :Gunnel Westberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; carcinoid syndrome; valvular heart disease; 5-HT; chromogranins; octreotide; hepatic arterial embolization;

   Sammanfattning : The biology of human midgut carcinoid tumour was studied experimentally in primary cell culture and clinically in patients with the midgut carcinoid syndrome. In cell cultures, tumour cells had a secretory pattern of 5-HTP, 5-HT and 5-HIAA specific for each tumour indicating individual regulation of synthesis/degradation. LÄS MER
