Subject: [ferrethealth] not ferret studies but they may add to understanding of insulinoma
To: fhl <ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com>
Free full article gives more understanding of pancreatic glucocoricoid
and prolactin interactions:

Another recent study looked at chaperone molecule, glucose-regulated
proteins 78 (Grp78):
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18597185
and
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18594013
looks at dendritic cell vaccination for another type of neuroendocrine
malignancy though insulinoma is mentioned in the abstract. It
mentions the conclusion:
> CONCLUSION: These results have a major effect, as they are the first
> to establish a role for xenogenic polypeptide hormones as target
> molecules for immunotherapy in endocrine malignancies.

So, who knows, maybe there is a glimmer of a direction there?
