Somatostatin receptor subtypes in human immune cells.
Somatostatin is a neuropeptide hormone that is widely distributed throughout the body. It was first discovered as a factor inhibiting the release of growth hormone. Later it was shown to have many functions in the endocrine system including the inhibition of secretion of other pituitary hormones, in addition to that of gastrointestinal hormones. Moreover, somatostatin acts as a neurotransmitter...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical detection of somatostatin receptor subtypes sst1 and sst2A in human somatostatin receptor positive tumors.
Although in situ hybridization has been used to examine the distribution of messenger RNA for somatostatin receptor subtypes (sst) in human tumors, the cellular localization of sst1 and sst2A receptors has not been reported. In this study, we describe the cellular localization of human sst1 and sst2A receptor proteins in both cryostat- and paraffin-embedded sections of 25 human tumor tissues us...
متن کاملPreclinical study of a new 177Lu-labeled somatostatin receptor antagonist in HT-29 human colorectal cancer cells
Objective(s): Somatostatin receptor-positive neuroendocrine tumors have been targeted using various peptide analogs radiolabeled with therapeutic radionuclides for years. The better biomedical properties of radioantagonists as higher tumor uptake make these radioligands more attractive than agonists for somatostatin receptor-targeted radionuclide therapy. In this study...
متن کاملDifferential expression of somatostatin receptor subtypes in brain.
The tetradecapeptide somatostatin has been implicated as an important regulator of neuronal and neuroendocrine function in the CNS. The cellular actions of somatostatin are mediated by specific receptors. The genes encoding two different somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) have been isolated and characterized, and RNA blotting studies have shown that both SSTR1 and SSTR2 are expressed in the brain. ...
متن کاملSomatostatin receptor subtypes in human thymoma and inhibition of cell proliferation by octreotide in vitro.
Somatostatin (SS) and SS receptor (SSR) subtypes, code-named sst1-5, are heterogeneously expressed in the normal human thymus. This suggests their involvement in controlling the immune and/or neuroendocrine functions in this organ. Moreover, recently a high in vivo uptake of [111In-DTPA-D-Phe1]octreotide has been reported in patients bearing thymoma. The present study characterizes in vivo and ...
