چکیده

The somatostatin analog D-Phe-Cys-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr-Cys-NH-CH(CH2OH)CHOHCH3 (SMS 201-995) displaces [3h[naloxone from its binding sites (IC50, 38 +/- 60 nM), being more than 200 times more potent than somatostatin. As measured by the difference between [3H]dihydromorphine, [3H][D-Ala2,D-Leu5]enkephalin, and (-)-[3H]bremazocine binding, SMS 201-995 appears to be highly specific for the opiate mu binding site. Electrophysiological data from hippocampal cultures and results from animal studies (tail flick, mydriasis) demonstrate the opiate antagonistic properties of SMS 201-995. SMS 201-995 is an opiate mu antagonist with a peptide structure. That this property is displayed by a somatostatin analog is somewhat unexpected.

Radioimmunoassay for octapeptide analogs of somatostatin: measurement of serum levels after administration of long-acting microcapsule formulations.

The development of a long-acting delivery system for D-Phe-Cys-Tyr-D-Trp-Lys-Val-Cys-Trp-NH2 (RC-160), an octapeptide analog of somatostatin, required the establishment of a method for determining the concentration of this analog in serum during treatment. A sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay (RIA) for RC-160 was developed and used for following the rate of liberation of this peptide from ...

Somatostatin receptor subtype-5 mediates inhibition of peptide YY secretion from rat intestinal cultures.

Somatostatin-14 (S-14) and somatostatin-28 (S-28) bind to five distinct membrane receptors (SSTRs), but S-28 has higher affinity for SSTR-5. Whether S-28 acting through SSTR-5 regulates inhibition of peptide YY (PYY) secretion was tested in fetal rat intestinal cell cultures. S-28 and S-14 caused dose-dependent inhibition of PYY secretion stimulated by gastrin-releasing peptide, but S-28 was mo...

Preclinical 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...

Cancer chemotherapy based on targeting of cytotoxic peptide conjugates to their receptors on tumors.

In view of non-specific toxicity of most chemotherapeutic agents against normal cells, the development of targeted chemotherapy is warranted. Efficient targeting of chemotherapeutic drugs to the cancerous area could be of great benefit for patients with advanced or metastatic tumors. Targeted cytotoxic peptide conjugates are hybrid molecules composed of a peptide carrier which binds to receptor...

The effects of gastrin, gastric inhibitory polypeptide, secretin, and the octapeptide of cholecystokinin upon immunoreactive somatostatin release by the perfused canine pancreas.

The effects of gastrin, gastric inhibitory polypeptide, secretin, and the octapeptide of pancreozymin-cholecystokinin on immunoreactive somatostatin release were studied in the isolated perfused dog pancreas. Gastrin at a concentration of 65 ng/ml and the octapeptide of pancreozymin-cholecystokinin at a concentration of 25 ng/ml produced a prompt, but transient statistically significant, twofol...
