We report a case of refractory pretibial myxoedema (PTM) with Graves' disease in which there was a good clinical response to intralesional injection of the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) antagonist octreotide. Intralesional octreotide (200 microg once daily) dramatically improved the tumorous
## Abstract Lactic acid production by chick embryo fibroblasts occurs in the absence of exogenous glucose. Fifteen to 50βfold less lactic acid is formed in the absence of glucose than in its presence. Nevertheless, serum and pH stimulation enhances this residual lactic acid production to the same r
The authors have shown that the interferon inducer, double-stranded polynucleotide, poly I poly C, and human interferon stimulate prostaglandin E (PGE) (1) and hyaluronic acid (HA) production (2) in human synovial fibroblast cultures and induce inflammation when injected into the rat joint ( 3 ) . A
