Somatotropinoma Infarction During Octreotide Therapy Leading to Bilateral Cavernous Sinus Syndrome
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2000-11)
The cyclic somatostatin analog, octreotide, forms the mainstay of medical treatment for acromegaly. In addition to lowering circulating growth hormone levels and shrinking tumor size, octreotide may provide symptomatic ...
Lysophosphatidylcholine alters enterocyte monolayer permeability via a protein kinase C/Ca 2+ mechanism
(Springer-Verlag, 2002-10)
The activity of phospholipase A 2 (PLA 2 ) is elevated in the intestinal epithelia of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. We recently reported that PLA 2 mediates the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) to ...
Effects of intraventricular infusion of vascular endothelial growth factor on cerebral blood flow, edema, and infarct volume
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Wien, 2003-01)
Background: Therapeutic cerebral angiogenesis, utilizing angiogenic factors to enhance collateral vessel formation within the central nervous system, is a potential method for cerebral revascularization. A prior dose-response ...
