The gene from which GRP is derived encodes a number of bombesin-like peptides.
2.
The Bombesin peptide has been shown to be overexpressed in BB2 receptors in prostate cancer.
3.
Bombesin is also a tumor marker for small cell carcinoma of lung, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, and neuroblastoma.
4.
CB-TE2A a stable chelation system for 64 Cu was incorporated with Bombesin analogs for in vitro and in vivo studies of prostate cancer.
5.
Bombesin-like peptides, like many other active peptides, are synthesized as larger protein precursors that are enzymatically converted to their mature forms.
6.
Bombesin-like peptide receptors include gastrin-releasing peptide receptor, neuromedin B receptor, and bombesin-like receptor-3 ( BRS3; this article ).
7.
Bombesin-like peptide receptors include gastrin-releasing peptide receptor, neuromedin B receptor, and bombesin-like receptor-3 ( BRS3; this article ).
8.
"' Bombesin-like peptides "'comprise a large family of peptides which were initially isolated from " amphibian " skin, where they stimulate smooth muscle contraction.
9.
Mammalian bombesin-like peptides are widely distributed in the central nervous system as well as in the gastrointestinal tract, where they modulate smooth-muscle contraction, exocrine and endocrine processes, metabolism, and behavior.
