## Background: For tumors that express somatostatin receptors (sstr), radiolabeled somatostatin analogs, such as 111in-pentetreotide, can demonstrate the presence of tumor by radioligand uptake using somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (srs). the use of 111in-pentetreotide for srs depends on the spe

An immunohistochemical study of the pineal gland of the domestic pig was carried out using rabbit antisera raised against synthetic peptide fragments corresponding to different amino acid sequences of the prosomatostatin, the somatostatin-14, and the somatostatin-28 molecule. The study was supplemen
Expression of mRNA for the 5 somatostatin receptors (sst 1-5 ) was characterized by Northern blot and RT-PCR analysis in 20 meningioma and 9 glioma samples. sst 1 mRNA was detectable by Northern blots of poly-A Ψ RNA in meningiomas but not gliomas. In contrast, sst 2 mRNA was readily detected by Nor
BACKGROUND. The vascular system of the tumor bed plays an important function in tumor growth regulation. Recent studies have suggested that the vasoactive peptides somatostatin and substance P may have a potential role in the tumor bed of selected tumors. ## METHODS. In the current study, somatos
