11. Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy in Neuroendocrine Neoplasms : Aspects of tumour characteristics, receptor recycling and peptide mass
Sammanfattning : Neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) can arise in any part of the body, but most commonly in the lungs, bronchi, and the gastrointestinal tract including the pancreas. They combine neuroendocrine and tissue-of-origin-specific characteristics; explaining different symptoms depending on the organ of origin. LÄS MER
12. Intraperitoneal 5-Fluorouracil treatment of cancer - clinical and experimental studies
Sammanfattning : Background:Pancreas cancer is a most aggressive malignancy. More than 80% of patients diagnosed with pancreas cancer, exhibit such advanced disease, that curative surgery is impossible. Systemic chemotherapy prolongs survival to 5-9 months. LÄS MER
13. Role of PAK4 in pancreas development and breast cancer
Sammanfattning : PAK4 is a Rho GTPase-regulated serine/threonine kinase that possesses critical functions in embryonic, neuronal and vascular development, immune defense and cancer. Constitutive PAK4 depletion causes embryonic lethality and mice with conditional PAK4 gene depletion in the heart and in the central nervous system displayed serious organ defects. LÄS MER
14. Insulin resistance in pancreatic cancer
Sammanfattning : The dismal prognosis of pancreatic cancer (PC) is related to metabolic complications of the tumor. Impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes due to insulin resistance, and cachexia are observed early and frequently in these patients. The basic mechanisms of PC-associated insulin resistance and weight loss are not fully understood. LÄS MER
15. Regulation of digestive organ. An experimental study on the role of CCK, Bile and EGF
Sammanfattning : Cholecystokinin (CCK) is known to exert secretory and trophic effects on the pancreas. Its release from the intestinal mucosa is regulated by pancresic proteases in the small intestine. However, knowledge about the type of responding exocrine cells and the time course of events during stimulation with CCK is lacking. LÄS MER
