✦ Synopsis


Abstract

Progesterone receptor was measured in eight samples of renal cell carcinoma, nine samples of normal renal tissue, and one sample of melanoma tissue. Progesterone receptor was identified in all samples, with the exception of one renal cell carcinoma. Three patients, all with receptor‐positive tumors, were treated with medroxyprogesterone acetate for metastatic disease. In one of these patients there was a partial objective response to treatment. Further research regarding progesterone receptor in renal cell carcinoma is indicated.

Tumor-associated trypsin inhibitor (TATI) is a 6-kDa peptide, which is identical to the pancreatic-secretory-trypsin inhibitor (PSTI). TATI is produced by several tumors and cancer cell lines, and is used as a serum marker for mucinous ovarian cancer. Elevated serum levels of TATI have also been obs

## Abstract Numerous peptide receptors are overexpressed in human cancer, permitting __in vivo__ tumor targeting. Among such receptors, those for the neurotransmitter neuropeptide Y (NPY) are overexpressed in various tumors. Since NPY can play a role in the kidney, NPY receptor expression and/or en
