    Notes: 1. In order to assess whether the observed hypotensive response in some patients given human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is caused by a direct vascular effect of the GM-CSF, the effects of mouse and human GM-CSF were examined in rat aortic rings and human saphenous veins respectively.2. No effects of GM-CSF were observed, either in the presence or absence of endothelium, on responses to the α-adrenoceptor agonist phenylephrine.3. These data suggest that GM-CSF does not have direct effects on either vascular endothelium or smooth muscle, and that a direct vascular effect of GM-CSF is not the explanation for the observed clinical response.

    Notes: Abstract A gastric cancer with liver metastases was associated with low morning levels of plasma glucose (24 mg/dl), insulin (〈2.5 μU/ml) and growth hormone (0.23 ng/ml). Primary and metastatic tumour tissue stained positively with anti-insulin-like growth factor II(IGF-II) monoclonal antibody. Western immunoblot analysis revealed a high molecular weight IGF-II in the serum: 15 kDa (normal: 7.5 kDa). Postmortem reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction on mRNA from both sites revealed 471 base pairs size cDNA encoding prepro-IGF-II. These results suggest that the gastric carcinoma encoded, expressed, and secreted IGF-II, probably causing the extrapancreatic tumour hypoglycaemia.
