Irrigation with taurolidine after laparoscopy decreases tumor growth in colon carcinoma. In pancreatic cancer subcutaneous therapy with octreotide decreases oxidative stress and carcinogenesis as well. However, it is still unclear, whether irrigation with taurolidine or octreotide after laparoscopic pancreatic biopsy reduces tumor growth in pancreatic cancer as well.

Conventional linoleic acid (LA) is regarded as a promotor of carcinogenesis. However, the effect of its conjugated derivative on cancer is still unknown. Therefore we investigated the influence of conventional and conjugated LA on tumor growth and lipid peroxidation in a solid model of pancreatic adenocarcinoma in Syrian hamsters.

While conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is regarded as an essential fatty acid with anticarcinogenic effects, conventional linoleic acid (LA) is reported to promote tumour growth in various experimental studies probably caused by high sensitivity to non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation. In order to evaluate the impact of dietary LA and CLA on liver metastasis and lipidperoxidation (LPO), 60 Syrian hamsters were injected with 10 mg N -nitrosobis-2-oxopropylamine (BOP)/kg body weight s.c.

Introduction: In prospective clinical trials, octreotide improved quality of life and survival time in patients with pancreatic cancer.

Aims: To analyze whether octreotide modulates the hepatic oxygen radical metabolism and thus might decrease liver metastasis in an animal model of pancreatic cancer.

Methodology: Syrian hamsters received 0.

Objectives: In prospective clinical trials, octreotide improved the quality of life and survival time in patients with pancreatic cancer. In this study, we analyzed whether octreotide modulates the intrametastatic oxygen radical metabolism and might decrease liver metastasis in a model of pancreatic cancer.

Methods: Syrian hamsters received 0.
