  1. 6. 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).

  2. 7. 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

    Sammanfattning : Obesity is a disease which has become a global epidemic that is beginning to replace undernutrition and infectious diseases as the most significant contributor to ill health in the world. In particular, obesity is associated with diabetes mellitus, hypertension and coronary heart disease. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Gastric acid secretion and gut peptides : mechanisms involved in inflammatory response

    Författare :Tobias Rudholm Feldreich; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The regulation of gastric acid secretion is complex and involves endocrine, paracrine, and neurocrine mechanisms. Among these, the interconnecting cross-talk between different gut peptides is an important part in the control of acid secretion. LÄS MER
